10 minutes prep, 20 minutes cook
Serves 2
Ingredients
150g Garofalo Cappelletti
50g Baby spinach, sliced
3- 4 long stemmed broccoli, chop the stalk in to 2 cm pieces
90g green beans, chopped into 2cm pieces
½ courgette sliced and quartered
75g dolcelatte cheese
1 tsp dried herbs such as oregano
Method
Bring your pasta water to the boil, salt the water, and add the Garofalo Cappelletti.
In a large pan heat 1- 2 tbsp of olive oil on a low heat, add the courgettes and season with a little salt, pepper and dried herbs such as oregano.
After the pasta has been cooking for 5 minutes, add the broccoli and green beans.
Next add the spinach to the pan with the courgettes. Carefully remove some pasta water from your cooking pasta and add to the pan along with the dolcelatte. Allow to simmer on a low heat and stir to melt the dolcelatte making a creamy sauce.
Once the pasta is cooked to the time on the pack, drain along with the vegetables and add to the pan with the creamy cheese and spinach sauce
Combine together and allow the sauce to coat the pasta and thicken a little.
Serve immediately into warmed pasta bowls.
