Plus, it comes together SO fast. The angel hair pasta--my favorite--cooks quickly because it's so thin. And the rest of the ingredients are even faster. Win-win.
COOK TIME: 5-6 minutes
INGREDIENTS
LEMON SPINACH PASTA
PREP TIME: 5-10 minutes
COOK TIME: 5-6 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 16 oz. angel hair pasta
- 1 tsp. garlic salt
- 4 Tbsp. butter (find pantry-friendly substitute options here; I prefer the powdered butter reconstituted with water plus a little oil)
- 4 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 2 1/2 - 3 c. freeze-dried spinach (available here; or you can dry your own with a food dehydrator)
DIRECTIONS
Rehydrate powdered butter (or melt butter-flavor shortening) and stir in lemon juice and garlic salt. Cook pasta according to package directions. During the last minute of cooking, add spinach to the boiling pasta. Drain pasta and spinach. Place in a serving bowl. Drizzle with butter-lemon juice mixture and stir until well-combined.

DeleteSounds easy and I'd make this recipe with extra virgin olive oil and no butter or butter substitute. I eat WFPB and prefer my food unprocessed. Wishing you a beautiful day.

DeleteI didn't know there was powdered butter or freeze-dried spinach. But I can see where they would be great pantry staples.
ReplyDeleteI know--I've learned a lot about such shelf-stable ingredients the past few years. They are indeed so nice to just have on hand. Thanks for reading and commenting, Donna!
DeleteThis looks great! I love pantry recipes, fresh foods seem to go bad so quickly. Thank you for visiting Tell It To Me Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lyndsey! Yes, I am a big fan of pantry recipes and shelf-stable staples. So good to have "just in case," without worrying if it will go bad. And this is so tasty, too! Thanks for the comment. :)
