Chickpea Spaghetti with Cherry Tomatoes & Parmesan
Ingredients:
- Two 8.8 OZ boxes of Barilla® Chickpea Spaghetti
- One 10oz package of cherry tomatoes (halved)
- ¼ cup of Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon of Kosher salt
- 1 cup of spinach (stems removed)
- 1 Tablespoon of tomato paste
- Black pepper - to taste
- Grated Parmesan - to taste
Directions:
In a large pot, bring to a boil 4-6 quarts of water. Add Barilla® Chickpea Spaghetti and boil for 6 minutes. Check pasta. If desired, boil an additional 2 minutes for more tender pasta. In a high wall skillet, reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining. Drain the pasta, set to the side.
Add to the high wall skillet your cherry tomatoes, olive oil, salt and tomato paste. Heat on medium heat for 5 minutes or until the tomatoes start to break down and soften. Add the spinach and heat until softened (about 1 minute). Next, top with the cooked Barilla® Chickpea Spaghetti. Stir to combine the veggies throughout and coat the pasta with the sauce. Grate fresh parmesan on top, let sit 1-2 minutes and serve! Enjoy!
