Pasta and Beans
Pasta and Beans is a great dish I found on the internet, and it's really easy to make. The recipe originally called for plum tomatoes, but grape tomatoes usually taste better so I used them with excellent results. The best part about this meal, aside from it being healthy and easy and tasty is that it looks really pretty.
what you need:
8oz of short pasta
2 packages of grape tomatoes (or 4-5 other tomatoes) chopped
10-12 oz spinach
3 cloves garlic
oregano
salt
pepper
red pepper flakes
1 15-ounce can cannellini beans
Parmesan Cheese
Olive oil
Bring water to a boil and add pasta.
As pasta is cooking, sautee garlic in olive oil for 1 minute. Add chopped tomatoes and spices. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or so, stirring on occasion. With 3 minutes left on pasta, add beans and spinach. Cook until spinach is wilted.
Before draining pasta, add about 1/2 cup of the hot water to the tomato/bean/spinach sauce. Drain the pasta and then add to sauce and mix. The sauce should be slightly runny.
Serve on plate topped with parmesan cheese and enjoy.

Cheese Ravioli
I'm not even sure this counts as a recipe.
Didn't much feel like cooking tonight, so I picked up a bag of frozen ravioli (cheeper than the refrigerated and better tasting) and a bag of spinach.
For the ravioli, simple sauce of fresh grated parmesan, olive oil, salt and lots of fresh ground pepper.
For the spinach, saute till just wilted in about 1 tsp olive oil per half a bag. Halfway through add creole seasoning. This salts and flavors spinach like no other. This can be started when the timer goes off for the ravioli.
I gotta find some new backgrounds for my food.
