DELICIOUS, cheap, fast, yet a meal you can entertain with! For a heartier meal, add some cooked chicken breast or shrimp. Ingredients:
6 ounces linguine pasta |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
3 cloves garlic, minced |
1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, with juice |
1 (9 ounce) box frozen creamed spinach, thawed |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the linguine, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. 2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the fire-roasted tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Cook 1 minute before adding the creamed spinach. Cook and stir 5 minutes; season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir the drained linguine into the tomato sauce before serving. |
