i took this picture back in november, in hopes of sharing a new recipe before christmas. alas, that did not occur! i made this dish for supper club a few weeks back, and after rave reviews, i decided it was time to share. i discovered this dish about a year and a half ago in one of my cooking light issues. this dish is a trifecta: inexpensive, easy, and healthy. i have made it so many times, i don't even need to look at the recipe. but, you don't know it yet! so, let's share.
ingredients:
8 oz of whole wheat farfalle pasta (i have also used penne)
1 tsp of olive oil
1 large pack of baby spinach
1 onion, sliced thin
1 pint of grape/cherry tomatoes, halved (2 C)
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tsp dried oregano (i use fresh when i have it...a couple of sprigs)
1 TB white wine vinegar
shaved parmigiano
3/4 C crumbled feta
salt and pepper to taste
what to do:
1. cook pasta
2. in a large pan, saute onion in oil until golden
3. add oregano
4. add garlic, saute' for 2 min
5. add tomatoes and vinegar
6. add spinach and cook down until soft
7. add pasta
8. remove from heat and add cheeses
9. salt and pepper
10. yum!
i have used more garlic before, less cheese, more white wine vinegar, and even some red pepper flakes. it all just depends on what i have in the kitchen :)
