The best part of this dish (my favorite thing to throw together for lunch) is that you can probably make it with what you've already got in your fridge and cabinets. The second best part is that it's delish! And the third best part is that each serving costs about $0.50...hard to beat!
Ingredients:
(Makes 2 adult-sized entree servings)
2 servings angel hair pasta
2 tomatoes, chopped
Handful of spinach, torn or sliced
2 green onions, sliced or cut with scissors
1/2 jalapeno, finely diced
2 eggs
Dash of thyme
Dash of basil
Black pepper, approximately 1/2 tsp.
Olive oil
Salt
Parmesan cheese, to taste (at least several Tbsp.)
Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
Red pepper flakes
[Optional: Few Tbsp. pasta sauce]
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package in salted water.
2. In the meantime, stir eggs over low heat in small omelette pan until well cooked.
3. Add cooked eggs to the bottom of a large bowl. Add red pepper, jalapeno, green onions, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, thyme, and basil.
4. Drain pasta when cooked and add to bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice.
5. Top with tomatoes and spinach.
6. Stir very well and serve topped with extra cheese [and pasta sauce].
Notes:
*Kid-friendly if you leave out the jalapeno, green onion (if your kid is picky like mine) and red pepper.
*To make it even faster, use hot tap water to start with (cuts down on boiling time).
*To make it wheat-free, use Trader Joe's Brown Rice Spaghetti.
