Summer Spaghetti
I came up with this last night when I was craving pasta but also saw there were loads of vegetables in the fridge that had to be eaten. I even threw in a little cheese even though it makes me ill, just because cheesy pasta is so yum. This made one huge portion that I couldn’t finish, so I suppose it will feed two girls or one man.
- 1 portion spaghetti
- 1/2 capsicum (green bell pepper)
- 1/2 onion
- 6 cherry tomatoes
- 8 small broccoli florets
- 1 dl grated Jarlsberg
- 10 slices cured ham
Slice the capsicum and the onion thinly (about 1-2 mm thick). Cut the tomatoes in half. Cut the ham slices into 1 cm strips.
Boil the spaghetti in 2 L water with a little salt and vegetable oil.
In a skillet, sauté the vegetables (except the tomatoes) for about five minutes. Add the tomatoes and sauté for another minute. You don’t want them to turn to mush.
When the spaghetti is done, drain and put it back in the pot. Add the vegetables, the ham and the cheese and toss. Serve immediately on deep plates.
Yum!
