LET’S MAKE IT
Step by simple step.
- 01
Warm the oil in a wide pot over medium-low heat. Cook the garlic for about 30 seconds, then add the tomatoes, broth, dried basil, and pasta.
- 02
Bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to a steady simmer and cook uncovered, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
- 03
Begin checking at the pasta packet’s suggested time. Add a little hot water if the pot becomes dry before the pasta is tender. Cooking time depends on pasta shape.
- 04
When the pasta is cooked and the sauce coats it, stir in the spinach until wilted. Turn off the heat and add cheese. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
A little kitchen wisdom
A wide pot and regular stirring help the pasta cook evenly. Keep a little hot water ready.
Use what you have
Use a vegetarian hard cheese if desired. Different pasta shapes absorb different amounts of liquid.
Keep the good food going.
