"La vita è una combinazione di magia e pasta!/Life is a combination of magic and pasta!" -Federico Fellini
Vacationing never gets old! My trip to Jordan was amazing yet again. Counting the days to go back again. Then, I came home and was a tourist in my town with my cousin. I hadn't been to some parts of Los Angeles in a while. That's what happens when you have guests from overseas. It's been a crazy month and so much has happened. I hadn't cooked in a while and it felt so good to come back and do it again! I was home last night with nothing to eat in the house, so I decided to throw together this quick and easy pasta recipe. Pasta is always a good idea! I gathered what I had in the fridge and pantry to work with and put this together! There's nothing better than a comforting bowl of pasta on a cold night, a glass of wine, Netflix, and chilling!
Ingredients:
1 pound angel hair pasta or pasta of your choice
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed, minced, or squeezed
1 cup fresh spinach
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon red pepper
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon dried basil
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
Extra Virgin Oilve Oil
Parmesan
Freshly ground black pepper

Place olive oil in a saucepan and squeeze in garlic. Toss so it doesn't burn.
