Ingredients

1 package Trader Joe’s Fall Zucchette Pasta (about 12 oz)
4 cups water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup spinach, fresh
Salt and pepper, to taste
Parmesan cheese, grated for serving

Instructions

Begin by bringing 4 cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water.
Cautiously add the Trader Joe’s Fall Zucchette pasta to the boiling water. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and cook according to the package instructions, usually about 6-8 minutes.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until they start to soften.
Next, add the fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring until it wilts, which should only take about 1-2 minutes.
Once the pasta is cooked to your desired texture, drain it and add it directly to your skillet with the sautéed vegetables.
Toss everything together, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, add a splash of pasta water to create a silky sauce.
Serve warm, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese for that perfect finishing touch.

Enjoy every bite of this comforting dish that celebrates the fall season. Happy cooking!
