Welcome to the Mediterranean!

So, here’s the last recipe in this 3-day Daniel fast. It’s all about the flavors of the Mediterranean – olives, tomatoes, parsley, olive oil, peppers, etc – you get the idea, right?

I told you – this was no ordinary Daniel fast – if you’re just joining us, check out the last three posts.

This one was simple…ready? Let’s go…

Mediterranean Pasta
- 1 lb. of whole wheat spaghetti
- 2 tablespoons of shallots
- 2 tablespoons of garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup of cooked artichoke, chopped
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
- 1/2 cup of black olives – your choice of flavors
- 1/4 cup of chopped parsley and cilantro mix (if you don’t like cilantro, use all parsley)
- 1/4 cup of sun dried tomatoes

This is REALLY easy. Cook pasta in salty boiling water until desired doneness. In a separate pan heat olive oil – then all everything…saute until all flavors are incorporated. This should take about 5 minutes tops. Continue to stir so that nothing sticks. Toss with drained pasta and serve.

For extra richness top with fresh cracked pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
