Pasta with Mediterranean Greens
Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package dry fusilli pasta
  • 1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 cup pitted, chopped kalamata olives
  • 1/2 cup pitted, chopped green olives
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
1
Begin by filling a large container with water and adding a moderate amount of salt. Place the container over high heat on your stovetop, bringing the water to a rolling boil.
2
Next, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until it reaches a slightly firm yet tender texture. Remove the pasta from the water using a strainer or colander and drain excess water.
3
In a separate microwave-safe dish, fill it approximately halfway with water. Place the chard inside and cook on the highest level for 5 minutes, or until it becomes soft and limp. Drain any remaining water from the dish.
4
In a skillet, heat a moderate amount of oil over medium heat on your stovetop. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, kalamata olives, green olives, and garlic to the skillet. Stir everything together until the ingredients are well combined.
5
Mix in the cooked chard into the skillet mixture, stirring constantly until it reaches a tender consistency. Combine the cooked pasta with the chard and olive mixture, then sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top for a finished dish.
