An easy to make, healthy, high in calcium, great for the taste buds recipe for skillet cooked white beans, spinach and tomatoes over linguine noodles.
Number of Servings: 6
Ingredients:
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 cans diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano (do not drain)
» I use tomato paste because I hate diced tomatoes so don’t be afraid to alternate with the type of tomato product you like best! - 1 can any white beans (I use Great Northern or Navy usually)
- 1 package fresh spinach
- 6 cups cooked linguine
- 6 Tablespoons Romano or Parmesan cheese (grated)
Directions:
- 1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet.
- 2. In a separate pan start boiling water for linguine and get linguine cooked while you continue.
- 3. Add garlic, saute for a minute or so.
- 4. Add tomatoes and beans and bring to a boil.
- 5. Cover with spinach, top with lid, reduce heat to low and simmer about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- 6. Spoon tomato/beans/spinach mixture over linguine and sprinkle with cheese.
This makes 6 servings of 1 cup of pasta, 1 cup of sauce and 1 tablespoon of cheese.
