College Living, Italian Dreaming

Recently, I went on a road trip to Savanna and as always I stopped at Publix on my way home to pick up some groceries for the week because I really dislike going to our local Walmart. I have been craving Italian food so much lately so when I saw this recipe for this Tuscan-Style Pasta with Arugula I knew I had to try it. I bought the few items I needed for this recipe and cooked it this past Monday.  

To make this recipe you need olive oil, onion, bell pepper, garlic, diced tomatoes, cannellini beans, red wine vinegar, salt, red pepper flakes, rotini pasta, spinach, and parmesan cheese.

The actual recipe is super easy to make which is perfect for me because between work, class, and student organizations I do not have much time to spend cooking.

To start you heat up your oil in a skillet and cook onion, garlic, and bell pepper until tender. Then you will add the tomatoes, beans, vinegar, salt and red pepper and bring it to a boil before reducing the heat and simmering for ten minutes.

While this is simmering begin your pasta. When your pasta is almost done add the spinach, drain and return to the pot.

When both of these are done add the tomato mixture to the pasta and serve with parmesan cheese.

Simple as that!

Along with the many recipes that Publix had, they also had many coupons that could be used for the products that were featured in the recipes. I was very excited for the chance to save some money on my dinner products because I am on a college student budget.
