Sun-Dried Tomato Spaghetti

 
This simple dish pairs whole wheat pasta with a delicious sauce and pantry staples like salty olives and sweet sun-dried tomatoes for a flavor explosion!
 

Ingredients

 
  • a little salt, for cooking the pasta
  • 1 (1 pound) box whole-wheat spaghetti
  • 3/4 cup pitted olives
  • 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons capers
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
 

Directions

 
Kids: Drain the diced tomatoes and add to the olive caper mixture.
Adults: Cook for another 2 minutes, or until diced tomatoes are incorporated. Add the cooked pasta to the pot, toss it to coat it in the tomato sauce and enjoy!
Adults: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the spaghetti according to package directions, or until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Together: While the spaghetti is cooking, combine the olives, sun-dried tomatoes and garlic in a food processor. Pulse until the ingredients are roughly chopped
Kids: Add the capers to the food processor with the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic and olives.
Adults: When the pasta has finished cooking, place the olive oil in the spaghetti’s cooking pan over medium-low heat. Add the olive caper mixture to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened, but isn’t yet sticking to the pan.
