Ingredients:

  • 500g whole-wheat pasta
  • 5-7 cloves crushed garlic (depending how garlicky you want it to be)
  • 1 cup green peas
  • 2 cups chopped arugula
  • 1/2 can unsalted tomato sauce
  • 15-17 sliced cherry tomatoes
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper

Instructions:

  • In a medium pot, add the tomato sauce, the garlic, and some salt and black pepper, with a little bit of water to thin the sauce, and steam for about 10 minutes on low heat.
  • Add the green peas, and let it steam for another 5 minutes.
  • In the meantime, bring water to a boil for the pasta. Add in the pasta and cook until al dente, then drain.
  • Add the arugula and the cherry tomatoes to the sauce, stirring for 2 minutes--or until the arugula has shrunk. Then turn off the heat.
  • Mix the pasta and the tomato sauce together, adjusting for seasoning.
