3 tomato served cottage cheese Recipes

ripe tomatoes, green onions, white and green parts, cilantro, chopped, fresh basil or 1 tbsp freeze- dried basil, oil (olive or grapeseed), balsamic vinegar, garlic powder (i find fresh garlic a little too strong in this mix), fresh ground black pepper, kosher salt

penne pasta (i used ronzoni garden delights for the extra servings of veggies), water (for cooking penne. follow direction on the box), kielbasa (i used hillshire farms lite ), fresh spinach, sliced into thin strips (or shredded ), diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano (del monte was the brand i used), light sour cream, light cottage cheese, low-sodium black beans, drained and rinsed thoroughly, shredded romano cheese (not the sprinkle cheese. you can also use shredded parmesan), parmesan sprinkle cheese (for serving)
