Recipe to Try: Penne Primavera

Serves: 2  Time: 30 minutes  Level: Easy

Ingredients

• 1 yellow onion
• 1 lemon
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 1/4 oz. of mint
• 6 oz. of penne pasta
• 5 oz. of baby spinach
• 4 oz. of green peas
• 4 oz. of ricotta cheese
• 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese
• 2 tbsp. of olive oil
• 1 tbsp. of butter
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Wash and dry all produce. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Halve onion; peel and dice one half (use the other as you like). Zest 2 tsp. zest from lemon, then cut into quarters. Finely mince garlic. Pick half the mint leaves from stems and finely chop (save the rest for garnish).
2. Once water is boiling, add penne to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 10 minutes. Scoop out and reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water, then drain penne. Meanwhile, stir together chopped mint, half the lemon zest, 1 tbsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
3. Melt 1 tbsp. butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, tossing, until softened, 3–5 minutes. Add 1 tbsp. olive oil, spinach and garlic to pan. Cook, stirring, until spinach is just wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in peas and mint pesto and cook until peas are warmed through, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
4. While onion cooks, place 1/3 cup pasta cooking water, ricotta and half the parmesan in another small bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
5. Once veggies are done cooking, add drained penne and ricotta mixture to pan. Stir until combined and until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Tip: The sauce should have a loose, creamy consistency. If very stiff or thick, add more pasta cooking water. If watery, let simmer until thickened— no more than 1–2 minutes.
6. Divide pasta mixture between bowls, then squeeze a lemon quarter over each. Pick remaining mint leaves from stems and roughly chop, then sprinkle over pasta. Garnish with remaining Parmesan and lemon zest.
