Pasta with Cherry Tomatoes, Spinach, Ricotta and Pesto

 

 

This is one of my favorite dishes! Since I didn’t have any fresh cherry tomatoes for the dressing, I used canned tomatoes instead. Even so, it turned out to be delicious! The ingredients used by me were for 4 servings.

 

 

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 3 cloves of garlic, chopped
• 1 teaspoon of chili flakes
• 1 can of tomatoes of 400 g
• 500 g of pasta
• 200 g spinach, chopped
• 4 tablespoons of ricotta
• 4 tablespoons of pesto
• parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)

 

Preparation:

• Heat up the oil in a frying pan, add the garlic and fry it until it gets golden.
• Add the chili flakes and tomatoes, add salt and pepper to taste and leave the sauce to boil for approximately 15 minutes until you see it thickening.
• Meanwhile, prepare the pasta according to the instructions on the pack and add the spinach in the last 2 minutes.
• Drain them well and add them over the dressing, then divide into 4 bowls.

 

You can serve it with ricotta, pesto and parmesan cheese by preference.
