Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Equipment

  • Large Pan or Pot

Ingredients

  • 16 oz pasta of choice I used whole wheat rotini
  • 5.5 cups water
  • 2.5 cups marinara sauce
  • 1/2 cup kalamata olives
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp capers
  • 2 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tsp minced garlic or 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes optional
  • 2 cups spinach

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients into a large pan or pot and bring to a boil.
  • Cook on medium heat, stirring every few minutes until all of the liquid is absorbed. Should take about 10-minutes.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • If the liquid completely absorbs but the pasta is still too firm, add more water until it's tender enough for you liking. 
  • The ratio is 1 cup of liquid for every 2 ounces of pasta. Marinara sauce is included as a liquid.
