Spinach and Basil Pasta Salad

Fill a large pot with salted water, making sure the amount is light. Place it on high heat and bring to a vigorous boil. Introduce bow tie pasta into the pot and return it to the boiling point. Continue cooking, without covering the pot and occasionally stirring the pasta, until it reaches a cooked state but still retains some firmness in the center, approximately 12 minutes.

Rinse the pasta with cold water to reduce its temperature and then drain it thoroughly using a colander placed in the sink.

Combine spinach leaves and fresh basil leaves in a large bowl, mixing them together thoroughly.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and introduce garlic into the skillet for 1 minute. Continue cooking until the garlic is fragrant, then add prosciutto to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Remove the skillet from the heat source.

Combine the prosciutto mixture with spinach and basil in a bowl, mixing everything together.

Introduce the cooked pasta into the bowl with the spinach mixture and mix again to combine. Season the pasta with salt and pepper according to your preference.

Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and pine nuts over the pasta, serving it immediately.
