The Best Pasta Bowls We Found for Under $5 Each

Whether you’re a homemade pasta wizard, a mac-and-cheese connoisseur, a genius at combining boxed pasta and jarred sauce, or somewhere in between, the bowl you eat from is always one of the most important aspects of the meal. Tastes in dinnerware vary, sure, but it’s probably safe to say you want something that looks great, is sturdy enough to handle a hearty bowl of pasta, and is easy to clean. (Having pretty good reviews doesn’t hurt, either.)

We surfed the digital aisles of Walmart and found plenty of great pasta bowls that are both budget-friendly and of very high quality. Keep scrolling for the best pasta bowls under $5 apiece.
