So tonight I made this new recipe for dinner, it was a hit! Filipe told me he never new there were so many ways to combine pasta, tomatoes and cheese!
3/4 lb. elbow macaroni (I used whole wheat and it was great)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic (I used 5)
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 (9 oz) bag spinach
salt & pepper
6 oz goat cheese, broken into chunks
3/4 cup walnuts, chopped & toasted
Cook mac according to directions (save about 1/2 cup pasta water). Saute garlic in olive oil for about 4 min (until garlic is golden) add tomatoes, spinach, reserved pasta water & cook until heated through (about 5 min). The recipe said to combine everything but the walnuts together in a bowl and add walnuts on top, but I left the heat on and added the pasta, cheese and walnuts to the garlic, tomatoes & spinach so the cheese melted with everything and the walnuts were mixed in.
PS- you can add 1/2 crushed red pepper to the garlic for a little extra heat if you want to
