And its topped with luscious, creamy burrata.
I look, feel and act healthyand generally, I am.

Instead, I now prioritizeanti-inflammatory ingredientsin everything I eat.
But I still need pasta.
(Its more of an emotional thing than anything else, perhaps.)
Instead of traditional pasta, Ive transitioned to using whole-wheat pasta.
This pasta dish is comfort food at its finest and lightest.
Just like that dish, this recipe is quick and easy to make.
The recipe takes 20 minutes from start to finish.
Did I tell you it uses only two pans?
Easy cleanup bonus points!
Making this dish is an exercise in aromatherapy.
This sense of sudden awakening shouldnt be surprising, as the herb is known for its stimulating scent.
When the aroma of garlic being heated in olive oil rises, I start to become seriously hungry.
It has that certain shimmering golden look that fresh tomato sauces balanced with olive oil have.
Then finally the baby spinach is tossed in to bring it all together.
It means Ill eat a smaller portion and stay full longer.
Though this dish fits the bill of essential summer dining, it can be enjoyed in any season.
Pack it for lunch with a green salad on the side.
