Directions
Pasta With Garlicky Greens and Fried Eggs, I prefer this using frozen greens if not using fresh from our garden The frozen greens are cleaner, cook up fast in the microwave & are usually quite a bit more economical than winter fresh greens That way my pan is available for the eggs to be done after the greens & pasta are mixed to plate This meal is understated elegance with good easily digested protein & nutritious greens The pasta is not so much nutritious but just about everyone on Earth enjoys it & it is inexpensive Recipe from The Washington Post whose foodistas adapted it from a recipe in A New Way to Cook by Sally Schneider (Artisan, 2001) , This is a great easy cheap recipe that doesn’t taste cheap As in all recipes, the better the ingredients you use, the better it will turn out – but in this one particularly, I think you should try and use really good olive oil and parmesan cheese because it is a simple dish and these flavors stand the recipe I was a little disappointed with the noodles at first because they are hard to mix everything in – it was like a mound of pasta in the middle and all of the ingredients around the sides Next time I will definitely cut the noodles in half and I might try penne It really does make a ton, and I think cutting the noodles in half will be perfect Thanks so much for the easy keeper Buster’s friend!, This was great! tasty, fast, healthy, and filling used frozen pureed spinach, and I added some chopped chives Other than that I followed the recipe exactly The result was very tasty and the fried egg added a lot I will definitely be making this again as it is perfect for a weeknight dinner Thanks for posting!
