MEDITERRANEAN PASTA

I've done it. I've found the PERFECT gluten free pasta.  I could never love another gluten free pasta more, unless it were made of healthier ingredients.  This is a treat for us, I try to stay away from processed foods, so noodles that aren't made of vegetables are a rare thing in this house- but when they make an appearance I WANT TO MARRY THEM.  This spaghetti brings me straight back to my childhood- the perfect indulgence for a cold winter night.  I hope you love as much as I do!  xx- Sarah {more after the jump}

INGREDIENTS:

1 package of gluten free spaghetti

4 medium tomatoes, chopped

25 oz of diced, peeled tomatoes (I used this brand)

1 medium yellow onion, diced

1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

3 cloves of garlic, pressed

1 tsp dried basil

1/2 tsp dried oregano, dried marjoram

1/2 cup kalmatta olives, pitts removed, slices in half

1 cup of chickpeas

1 heaping cup of dino kale, stems removed and sliced

1 tablespoon coconut sugar

1/2 tsp sea salt

fresh cracked black pepper

red pepper flakes

 

METHOD: 

For the pasta:

- Being a large pot of salted water to a boil

- Cook spaghetti according to package instructions

For the sauce:

- In a large, heavy bottomed sauce pan combine onion, garlic and olive oil.  Cook until onions are softened and slightly carmelized, then add chopped tomatoes, basil, oregano, marjoram, coconut sugar and sea salt.

- Simmer on medium low heat for 5-10 minutes.

- Add chickpeas and olives, simmer for an additional 3 minutes.

- Add diced tomatoes, red pepper flakes (optional) and fresh cracked black pepper and additional sea salt to taste

- Add kale and mix well until kale is wilted.

- Serve steaming hot!  Enjoy!

that looks amazing, and the best part is -- i already have all the ingredients at home minus the coconut sugar. does it make a huge difference if i omit that ingredient?
