Pasta and Greens

Collection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • Pasta of choice (Penne is my fav for this recipe)
  • 2-3 cups sliced collard greens
  • 1/4 - 1/2 cup pine nuts
  • 1-2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • oregano and/or bazil to taste
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

While pasta is cooking, sautee garlic and spices in oil.
Add pine nuts to garlic and oil sautee. Add more oil if
necessary. Chop collard greens. Place the greens in a
microwave safe dish and microwave for approximately 7
minutes or until cooked.

Toss all ingredients together and serve with a warm crusty
bread. Enjoy.

This is an especially satisfying recipe knowing that
collard greens are jammed packed with calcium!

Serves: 2-4
