SPICY & SALTY RED PEPPER PARMESAN PASTA

Note: Sometimes in my recipe posts I post a lot of pictures to try to prove to you how good the recipe is. I won't do that this week. This recipe speaks for itself. Nom. 

I love pasta so much. So so much. Don't waste your time telling me how processed food is bad for you. 

Yes I know.

No I will not stop eating pasta.

I've shared recipes for different noodleypastay dishes here, here, and here- and the only reason there aren't more is because I'm afraid all my Whole 30/ Paleo friends will disown me if I keep posting carb heavy dishes. Unfortunately, I just couldn't NOT post this one. It is so simple, and ridiculously delicious. 

Pepper Parmesan Pasta (serves 3-4)

What you'll need:

1/2 box (1/2 lb) of Angel Hair Pasta 

2-3 large cloves of garlic, minced

1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese

1 1/2 Tablespoons red pepper flakes (more if you like more spice)

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

(sea salt to taste)

How to make it happen: (ready for how hard it is?)

Step 1: Cook your pasta to the directions on the box- to al dente.

Step 2. Toss while warm in olive oil  and garlic and serve on a large dish immediately.

Step 3: Top with cheese, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and oregano. 

Step 4: Eat. 

This dish looks gorgeous to serve on a big white dish, and couldn't be easier to make- as you just saw! 

If you want to cut the salt a bit- squeeze a little lemon over before dishing it all out. 

Have an awesome pasta dish I have to try?
