Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil, drained and chopped
1/2 cup coarsely chopped jarred roasted red peppers
1 (28-ounce) can plum tomatoes
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to season
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves, torn into pieces
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley leaves
12 ounces bow-ties pasta (farfalle)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, optional

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, red pepper flakes, sun-dried tomatoes, and roasted peppers and cook until the garlic is aromatic, about 1 minute. Crush the tomatoes through your fingers into the pot; stir in their juices, sugar, the 1 teaspoon salt, and season with pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat, stir in the herbs, cover, and set aside for about 10 minutes for the flavors to come together.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat. Salt the water generously, add the pasta, and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain, saving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
  • Before serving, add the vinegar to the sauce. Add the drained pasta to the tomato sauce and toss. Thin with a little pasta water, if needed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Divide among 4 warm serving bowls. Pass the grated cheese, if desired, at the table.

MEATLESS BOWTIE PASTA WITH MUSHROOMS & FETA CHEESE



Meatless Bowtie Pasta With Mushrooms & Feta Cheese image

Great meatless meal or cut up and saute a chicken breast or two to switch it up. I created this recipe myself tonight. Sounded like a good blend so decided to try it. Putting it down to save , but thought I would share as well. I served this with garlic bread . It would be good with a green salad as well. I like to season with Mrs. Dash low sodium seasoning as we are trying to watch our sodium. I also use Smart balance Buttery Spread in place of the butter. Amounts are just estimates. You can add more or less of what you like for your own taste.
