Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 - 12 ounce box of pasta - I have used egg noodles and spaghetti (break longer pastas in half to fit in the pan better
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cups fresh spinach slightly chopped
- 1 medium sized onion sliced
- 32 ounces of broth I use chicken broth or you can use vegetable
- 2 - 14.5 ounces cans diced tomatoes (do not drain)
- 1 Tablespoon dried or fresh basil rough chop fresh
- 1/2 Tablespoon dried oregano
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in your pot.
- Make sure to give it a stir so the liquid covers the pasta and veggies.
- Place a lid on your pot and cook, on your stove, on high until it begins a rapid boil.
- Uncover and turn flame to medium.
- Continue cooking for 15 minutes more, pasta will absorb the liquid.
- Stir occasionally so pasta doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
- DO NOT DRAIN.
- Serve, topped with a little fresh grated Parmesan cheese.
Notes
Add cooked chicken, sausage or meatballs when serving to include extra protein.
