Angel Hair Pasta With Spinach, Tomatoes and Onion

Submitted by CookinwithGas

"Lighter fare with only the most basic seasoning for a subtle flavor that 'seasoning addicts' may not be able to appreciate...Made more heart healthy with the use of whole wheat pasta, this dish simply cannot be beat!"

Quick and easy...even, for someone like me who has a back injury...made betterbwith a dash of red pepper flakes and a splash of white wine when waiting the tomatoes...then, continue with directions and serve up with freshly grated parmesan cheese.

I made this for dinner tonight and it was really good. I used Barilla's Bavette #13 pasta, 4 chopped vine-ripened tomatoes, 300 grams of baby spinach leaves, a white onion, sea salt & freshly ground pepper and the other ingredients as listed. Will make again!

I made this just as posted and we really enjoyed it. The next time I make it I'll add some sauted garlic and olive oil to the pasta before I add the veggie because the pasta needed alittle something to keep it from tasting bland.It was a quick and easy dish. It was ready to eat in about 20 mins. Thanks for posting it.
