This weekend I was watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 and thought it would be fun to come up with a spaghetti recipe with a greek twist and here is what I got for you ….
Ingredients:
1 cup of spinach
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 Tablespoon of red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon of fresh basil
2 cloves of garlic, minced (or more, to taste)
½ tablespoon of oregano
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
1 cup of halved cherry tomatoes,
½ cup red onion, chopped
½ a cup of Kalamatta olives, pitted and sliced
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and cook spaghetti squash .
For the Greek Sauce:
in a medium frying pan, heat the olive oil, vinegar over moderately low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Next add onion, olive, tomatoes, spinach and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Last add pepper, oregano, basil and let simmer for 10-15 minute stirring occasionally.
Fork out the spaghetti squash into a large bowl and pour greek sauce over it and toss.
Enjoy!
