Lemon-Spinach Orecchiette With Toasted Almonds
We love a classic red sauce, but this orecchiette is so fresh and bright that it's almost like eating a salad (but better). Spinach complements the light lemon-garlic, and when topped with toasted almonds and sliver of parmesan? Perfect!
Ingredients:
1 16 oz box orecchiette
2 cloves garlic, minced
Zest and juice of 1 large lemon
1 bunch fresh spinach (about 6 oz)
3/4 cup sliced almonds
Olive oil as needed
Parmesan cheese shavings, to taste
1. In a small pot, saute garlic in a shallow pool of olive oil, over a medium heat, for less than a minute. You want to keep some of the bite, so don't let it really brown.
