Time Poor Pasta


Cooking a healthy, nutritious and tasty meal can easily be done in under 30 minutes and this includes all the preparation!

Tonight on the Tarian Pantry's menu was a roasted tomato, onion, spinach, kale and olive kamut pasta. Sometimes its the simple meals that taste the best and this pasta was no exception.



Ingredients
Kamut Pasta (Penne or Spiral), 1 packet
4L water
1 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic, crushed
1/2 tsp chilli flakes
1 onion, sliced
1/2 bunch kale & spinach, chopped
20 olives, pitted
Cherry tomatoes, 1 punnet roasted

Method
Cook the pasta in boiling water according to packet instructions.

In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil and fry the garlic and onion for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the kale, spinach, olives and tomatoes and mix throughly.

Once the pasta is al dente, drain the pasta and return to the saucepan; stir through the tomato mixture and serve.
