ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat rotini, dry
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 5 -6 garlic cloves (minced or pressed)
- 1 slice onion, finely chopped
- salt & pepper
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 4 teaspoons pine nuts, toasted
directions
- Bring water to boil in medium pot & cook rotini according to package directions.
- While pasta is boiling, in a large skillet warm the olive oil on a low temperature with the garlic and onion. The point is to impart flavor into the oil, not to cook the garlic & onion quickly. About 2 minutes before the pasta will be finished, turn the heat up to medium, to turn the garlic & onion golden.
- Drain the pasta, add it to the the olive oil in the skillet, and toss in the spinach. Keep the heat on medium, and stir for 1-2 minutes until everything is mixed and warmed through.
- Serve onto plates, add 1 teaspoon pine nuts on top of each serving.
