Parsley Pasta with Garlic: A Healthy and Flavorful Recipe for a Perfect Weeknight Meal

I’m all about less is more and a pasta enthusiast. How could you not be its top tier comfort food. With this recipe it is sooooo simple and easy you honestly could not fail. If you would like, you can add some protein to the dish, but nothing else really as I think it will take away from the simplicity away from the dish.

So I set myself a pasta challenge this weekday, to create a new pasta dish every day. From new kinds of pasta to various ingredients and methods. Creamy pasta dishes, tomato-based dishes, my take on classic dishes etc. I found it very rewarding and interesting as it pushed me out my comfort zone more. I came into contact with numerous pasta I’ve never had and easily overlooked in the stores and restaurants. ‘Campanelle’ is one of them. This is perfect for absorbing sauces.

I personally used Linguine, Campanelle, Farfalle, Rigatoni & Fusilli. I hope this also expands your interest to want to try new pasta or experiment more. This recipe yields for one person.

You’ll need

30g, Parsley

3 Garlic Cloves
