Penne with spinach and tomatoes | Recipes | WW USA image

This pasta dish is so fresh and flavorful and is super-easy to make. It incorporates chicken broth, garlic, spinach, oregano, grape tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese, creating a dinner that's not only delicious, it's also impressive-looking and colorful enough to serve at a dinner party for friends and family. Just keep in mind that it's important to reserve the starchy pasta cooking liquid to help emulsify and thicken the sauce while you're tossing it all together with the broth and tomato juices. Feel free to experiment with whatever vegetables and cheese you have on hand as well. For some variety, use thin broccoli spears or broccolini instead of spinach, and pecorino romano instead of the feta. You could also use vegetable broth to make this vegetarian.

PENNE WITH SPINACH, TOMATOES AND OLIVES RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Penne With Spinach, Tomatoes and Olives Recipe - Food.com image

My favorite recipe category: few ingredients, outstanding results! Delightful, healthful, quick and easy to prepare. I strongly recommend that you use only kalamata olives in this recipe. Otherwise I used 9 ounces bagged spinach, 6 ounces pasta myself, but published the recipe as written. From a cookbook called "The Best in the World" by Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. This particular recipe came from Au Bar (renamed Je Me Souviens) in Palm Beach, Florida.

1/2 cup kalamata olive, pitted, sliced
1 lb fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
8 ounces penne pasta
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (optional)
