Pasta a la Checca
brought to you by epicurious.com and NutritionData.com Calories 357; Total Fat 15g; Carbohydrates 48g Here’s a wonderfully fresh and heart-healthy summer dinner that’s ready in just 15 minutes! Tomatoes, garlic, and arugula are lightly cooked by tossing them with hot pasta and a bit of extra-virgin olive oil and letting the mixture rest in the pot for two minutes (just enough time to open a bottle of wine). The delicious result is low in saturated fat and cholesterol while high in antioxidant vitamins A and C (from the tomatoes) and heart-healthy nutrients K, niacin, and folate. Serve with crusty bread, and scoop out some store-bought frozen yogurt for dessert
