very easy

Description

By Audrey Skoropad

As a little girl, pasta was one of my favourite dishes. It still is, but now I make healthier choices about the type of pasta I eat. My favourites include zucchini pasta made with a spiral slicer, kelp noodles (a seaweed), and mung bean and lentil pasta. Of course, whenever I have the choice, I opt for gluten-free pasta. Today’s recipe can be made with whatever type and shape of pasta you like. The one on the picture is rice fettuccini.

I came up with this recipe on the fly one day when I was in a huge rush. I tossed all the ingredients in a bowl and mixed. It made a happy mixture that has now become one of my staples!

Here’s my recipe: Here’s my recipe:

Ingredients

4 cups
cooked pasta, hot
1 cup
chopped cherry tomatoes
3 cups
baby spinach
1
garlic clove, minced
½ cup
olive oil
2 tsp.
Himalayan salt
Pepper, to taste
½ cup
nutritional yeast flakes

Directions

Step 1
Simply add all ingredients to a bowl and mix. Make sure pasta is still warm to make the spinach wilt slightly. Add some roasted vegetables, a bit of pesto, or pine nuts to the mixture and voila. This recipe is really easy, but is sure to be a favourite!
Bon appétit!
