This pasta is light and fresh dressed in a cilantro and garlic mix and loads of your preferred veggies. I usually do this with boiled carrots and zucchinis but please feel free to use whatever veggies you love or have on hand! Comes together really quickly. Recipe is for 2.
Ingredients:
- 200 gr whole wheat fusilli, or any pasta you have on hand or prefer
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 3 small zucchinis, chopped into bite size pieces
- 2 medium carrots, chopped into bite size pieces
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Method:
- Place a pot filled with water and bring it to the boil.
- Add the pasta.
- Five minutes later, in the same water the pasta is cooking, add your chopped veggies let cook.
- When pasta is done drain and set aside.
- In a pan add olive oil and garlic.
- When the garlic starts getting fragrant add the cilantro and cook for about 5-7 minutes. Season well.
- Add drained pasta and veggies to the cilantro mixture.
- Mix well.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
Buon Appetito!
