It's statistical common knowledge that 108.5% of Earth's population loves spaghetti. It's easy to make and it's delicious, and if you're like a lot of people, it's a comfort food staple. This is a little variation that adds some vitamins or whatever it is in vegetables that you need. Pay attention, this is a really complicated ingredients list:
- 1/3 box of spaghetti (or just, you know, some kind of pasta)
- half jar of marinara sauce
- vegetables for sauteeing
- freshly grated parmesan
Fill a large pot halfway fall and salt it to ocean water status. Bring it to a boil and add the spaghetti. I used whole wheat spaghetti because it's got lots of fiber and I like the way it tastes. It's nutty. Cook it to al dente, drain it and set it aside for now.
Next, lower the heat on your pot to medium or medium-high and add coat the bottom with a thin layer of olive oil. Finely dice whatever vegetables you like, add them to the oil and sprinkle a little salt on top to help them sweat. I used garlic, onion, carrots, celery, mushrooms and asparagus. Cook them until they're soft and add the marinara sauce. I like to add the pasta to the pot and re-heat it with the sauce, but obviously you can just pour the warm sauce over the pasta on the plate if you prefer. Grate some parmesan over the top and eat it. I think the vegetables, beside being healthy, add some extra flavors and textures.
Apparently, there exists a show on Nickelodeon called "iCarly." I don't really know much about it, except that on the show something, something Spaghetti Tacos. Now, there is some huge craze over it. Just for fun, I made it. It's not the greatest thing I've ever eaten, and I am fairly sure I'll be okay keeping my spaghetti separate from my tacos in the future.
