Garlic Spinach & Tomato Pasta

More Pasta! Sauceless, but still tasty as ever. This dish is a cross between a hot, saucy one and a cool, refreshing pasta salad. Garlic, tomato and spinach are great basic ingredients, put together in a not so basic way and the result is delightful. Combined with Maria's chickpea fusilli - there is no going wrong.

Garlic Spinach & Tomato pasta

Ingredients:

1/2 bunch fresh spinach

10 cherry tomatoes

3/4c dry Fusilli pasta (This is super flexible, use whatever pasta you like... or even rice or quinoa!)

1 clove garlic

1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil

1 tsp oregano

Sunflower oil for sautéing

Salt & pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Put the pasta on to boil and cook.

2. While the pasta is cooking, mince a clove of garlic and sauté it a bit in some sunflower oil.

3. Halve the cherry tomatoes and toss them into the pan once the kitchen is filled with a lovely garlic scent.

4. After about 4 minutes with the tomatoes, toss in the spinach. Remove after about 4 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted.

5. Once the pasta is done, take it off the stove, drain and rinse. Place back into pot. Once this is done, add in the olive oil and oregano until all the noodles are well coated.

6. Add in the sautéed spinach and tomatoes and mix together.
