one pot veggie pasta

I tried this with turkey sausage added, but it’s better with just veggies. Serves 4-6 - easily halved.

  • 1 pound linguine/spaghetti/fettucine

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, sliced in half lengthwise

  • 3 handfuls baby spinach

  • 1 small onion, diced

  • 4 cloves minced garlic

  • 4 tbs olive oil

  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 8 cups low-sodium chicken stock, vegetable broth, or water

  • parmesan cheese and fresh basil to serve

In a large deep pan, place the tomatoes, spinach, onions, garlic, and basil. Add the pasta - I like to break the uncooked noodles in half so they all fit in the pot, plus it’s easier to eat.

Add the water/stock and bring to a boil. Cook for 8-10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Once the liquid is nearly evaporated, remove the pan from heat and serve with parmesan and fresh basil.
