Yes...there's some pasta. LOL But only 8 oz in the whole dish. With pasta having a low to mid-range GI of 50-55 it's okay to splurge with a sensible portion. ENJOY!
Ingredients:
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 8 oz uncooked short macaroni of choice
- 8 oz frozen cut leaf spinach, thawed.
- 1 28 oz can whole tomatoes in puree
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1 1/2 1sp dried oregano
- 1/8 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper, (or to taste)
- ~12 oz pollock bites or cod
- shredded parmesan cheese
Preparation:
Add tomatoes to a large deep pot, cut and mash with potato
masher, then add broth and uncooked pasta. Add remainder of the ingredients except fish.
Make sure everything is submerged under the broth. Cover the pot with a lid,
and bring to a boil over high heat. Remove lid and turn down to medium heat.
Boil continuously 5-6 minutes, then add fish and simmer another 5 minutes or
until pasta is done and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally.
Ladle into bowls and top with Parmesan cheese.
Blessed be… and happy cooking!
