Ingredients
Bowtie Pasta
3-4 Fresh Tomatoes, Blanched & seeds removed
1 bag of fresh baby Spinach
1/2 C of Vegetable broth
1-3 cloves of Garlic
dried Rosemary (to taste)
dried Oregano (to taste)
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
Olive Oil (3-4 Tbs)
Nutritional Yeast
Instructions
Cook pasta according to directions and set aside. Next, blanch the tomatoes, remove the seeds and skin and then chop. Wash the spinach and then chop it up as well. Heat the olive oil in a pan and add the garlic and spinach first. Cook the spinach on medium heat until it gets a little tender.
Add the seasonings and then the tomatoes and saute for about 2-3 minutes. If you sauté too long, the tomatoes get too mushy. Just before it’s done, add the veggie broth and stir for another minute to thicken. Finally, remove from heat and stir in the pasta. Serve hot with a little nutritional yeast over top. Serves 5-6.
