Spinach fettuccine is served with a quick sauce of tomatoes and feta cheese. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package spinach fettuccine pasta |
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh tomatoes |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint |
1/4 cup chopped black olives (optional) |
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese |
1 pinch salt and ground black 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 fettuccine, 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 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
2. Place the tomatoes, mint, and black olives (if using) into a saucepan over medium-low heat, and bring to a bare simmer. Stir in the feta cheese, and allow to melt slightly.
3. Place the spinach fettuccine into a serving bowl, and toss with the tomato mixture. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
