Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time10 minutes
Servings: 1 large serving

Ingredients

  • 4 fettuccine egg noodle nests per serving
  • 1/3 cup vegetable stock
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp marinara sauce per pasta nest
  • 1/2 bag fresh spinach
  • 1 cup vine-ripened cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp red onion diced
  • 1 tbsp garlic minced
  • 1/3 cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • Olive oil a drizzle
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Nestle the fettuccine nests into the center of the skillet, keeping everything in a single layer so it cooks evenly
  • Add the red onion, garlic, cherry tomatoes, spinach, and Italian seasoning directly into the pan, spreading everything into an even layer. Drizzle olive oil over all the ingredients.
  • Pour the vegetable stock and heavy cream over the pasta, then spoon marinara sauce directly onto each nest.
  • Cover tightly with a lid and let it simmer for about 10 minutes on medium low heat.
  • Once the pasta has softened, uncover and give everything a good mix to combine the sauce and vegetables. Add the parmesan cheese and stir until melted and creamy. If you like it more saucy, add a splash more vegetable stock here.
  • The dish is done when the noodles are tender and the sauce is thick, creamy, and coating everything beautifully.
  • Serve immediately and top with shrimp, salmon, or chicken if you want to add more protein.
