Another 30 minute weeknight dinner idea, perfect for Meatless Monday. I added Spinach, but you can substitute with Kale or your favorite greens.
Sun Dried Tomato and Spinach Pasta
Ingredients Spaghetti ( I used half the package) Salt 1 Tablespoon olive oil 3-4 garlic cloves, minced 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional) 1/4 - 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes, sliced 2-3 cups baby spinach or any greens 1 lemon, juiced 1/4-1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese salt and pepper optional toppings: basil or nuts
Directions
Boil the pasta in salted water according to package directions for al dente.
Heat oil in a large skillet. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add sun dried tomatoes and spinach and cook for about a minute. Add the cooked spaghetti and about 1/4 cup of the pasta water and toss to combine.
Add lemon juice, 1/4 cup ( or more) of parmesan cheese and toss to combine. Taste and add salt, pepper, parmesan cheese or pasta water as needed.
Top with parmesan cheese and optional toppings such as basil or nuts before serving.
