June Recipe

Angel-Hair Pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce

This recipe is a quick one. Only 15 minutes or so. A sort of sad picture though, as I didn't have fresh basil or Parmesan.

12 oz. angel-hair pasta
1 jar (14.5 oz) marinara sauce
¾ cup frozen petite peas, not thawed
1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream
Garnish: chopped fresh basil and Parmesan cheese

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions.

Meanwhile, bring marinara sauce to a boil in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in peas, cover and simmer 2 minutes or until peas are tender. Reduce heat to low, add sour cream and stir until blended.
Toss pasta with sauce and top with basil and cheese.

This is my kind of recipe! Quick, easy, and it sounds and looks delicious. And as an added bonus, I know my kids will eat it because honestly, what kid doesn't love pasta? It's the perfect messy dinner!
