Pasta is a foundational staple in the long-term and emergency food pantry. To add variety, rotate through the different Mediterranean olives as a topping.
Ingredients
- 2 ounces angel hair pasta
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 jar Spanish (Manzanilla) olives
- 1 jar Greek olives
- 1 jar black olives
Directions
- Step 1 Make an “OK” sign with your thumb and first finger. The amount of pasta that fits into this space is a single serving, about 2 ounces.
- Step 2 Angel hair pasta has the quickest cook time, usually less than 5 minutes, depending on your altitude.
- Step 3 Add pasta to a saucepan of boiling, salted water and cook until tender, usually not more than 5 minutes. Drain.
- Step 4 Toss pasta with grated Parmesan and olive oil.
- Step 5 Choose your “olive of the day” as a topping, either manzanilla, Greek, or black.
- Step 6 Add coarse pepper to taste.
