Hello and a Pasta recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi, I'm JoAryn. I don't have a lot to share, but here's something I

like to make when I need a quick, light meal. I don't know the

calories or anything like that, it just tastes light.

 

 

Pasta for two people, cooked al dente

1 1/2 Tbs Olive oil

1/4 tsp oregano

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes or 1/8 tsp ground red pepper

3-4 cloves garlic chopped fine

1 small onion diced

10-15 cherry or grape tomatoes

1 small yellow zucchini cut in half

1-2 Tbsp capers

1/4 cup red wine

Salt and black pepper to taste

 

Heat the olive oil in medium sized frying pan over medium heat. Add

the chopped garlic, the oregano and red pepper stir briefly. Add the

onion and stir, cooking until the onions start to become translucent.

Add the tomatoes zucchini and cook, stirring frequently until the

tomatoes begin to split. Add the capers and break open the tomatoes

(if they haven't split open already. Add the wine and stir, then let

simmer about 5 minutes to let the alcohol evaporate and the flavors

blend. Top bowls of pasta with 2-3 scoops of the sauce and sprinkle

with parmesan cheese if desired.

 

This serves two good sized helpings but could probably make three

smaller portions.

 

Enjoy!
