Jill's Spinach and Tomato Pasta Recipe

You'll need:

  • 1 cup vegetable broth (low sodium is better for you)
  • 5-10 tomatoes, Roma tomatoes are smaller and you may want to use more
  • 1 tablespoon best olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 3 handfuls of fresh shredded spinach
  • 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (a blend of cheeses is fine)
  • 1 package penne pasta
  • 2 tablespoons pine nuts

In a small saucepan, bring the broth to a boil, and then remove it from heat.

Chop tomatoes and put them in the broth.   Let the mixture cook for about five minutes.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.  (Salting the water is not necessary, but you must stir the pasta frequently.)   Place penne pasta in the boiling water, cooking it 9 to 12 minutes, until it is al dente (not too soft).  Drain the penne and pour it into a large bowl.

Meanwhile, place the pine nuts in a skillet over medium heat.   Cook and stir until lightly toasted.   Remove them from the skillet and set aside in the large bowl.

Heat the olive oil and red pepper flakes in the skillet over medium heat, and sauté the garlic for one minute, until tender.

Mix in the spinach, and cook until it is almost wilted.   Pour in the reserved broth, and stir in the chopped tomatoes.   Continue cooking two minutes, or until heated through.

Add the spinach and tomato mixture to the pasta and pine nuts.

Serve with Parmesan cheese.
