Ingredients
16OunceBox dried spaghetti noodles
Food coloring of choice
Instructions
Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and let cool slightly.
Portion noodles into resealable plastic bags (or bowls).
Add 10-20+ drops of one food coloring to the first bowl. Mix until you get the desired color. (If you're using a resealable plastic bag, add the color, seal the bag, and then use your hands to massage the noodles around in the color, turning the bag as you go.)
Repeat the process with the second food coloring in the next bowl/bag of noodles.
Repeat until all the noodles have been colored.
Top with butter or favorite pasta sauce. (Or, leave plain for sensory play.)
Notes
We use spaghetti instead of angel hair pasta because we had better luck getting the color to adhere to the regular (thicker) spaghetti noodles.
