At the end of a long week sometimes I just want something warm and easy to whip up--10 minutes of prep time and another 15 to cook.
baked pasta with arugula, tomatoes and carrots
2 cups of arugula, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 can diced tomatoes (or two fresh tomatoes, diced)
3 carrots, peeled and sliced
1 cup of pasta
6 oz of goat cheese
salt and pepper for seasoning
2 tbsp butter
- preheat oven to 350
- put up water to cook the pasta, once it comes to a boil add a generous amount of salt and pasta
- preheat pan with butter, add carrots once butter starts to melt (I used my cast iron skillet so I could place it straight in the oven) and salt
- cook carrots for about 5 minutes on their own, tossing occassionally
- add tomatoes (drained), arugula, garlic and more salt and pepper
- let all the veggies cook together for about 3 minutes, tossing together
- under cook the paste to just below al dente--about 4 mins under cook time, add to pan
- place goat cheese in pan, toss all ingredients together until incorporated and let bake in the oven for about 7 minutes
serves two
