Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Gluten-free pasta
- 1 cup Hummus
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 cups Spinach, fresh
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Cook the gluten-free pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water.
While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes until they start to soften.
In a small bowl, whisk together the hummus, lemon juice, and 2-3 tablespoons of the reserved pasta water until smooth and creamy. Add more water as needed to reach your desired sauce consistency.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the spinach and tomatoes. Pour the hummus sauce over the pasta and toss to coat evenly.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well to combine and heat through, about 2 minutes.
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
