Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

Ingredients

• Salt

  Table

  1 dash or 0.4g

• Spaghetti

  Whole Wheat - Meijer

  16 oz or 454g

• Olive oil

  Salad or cooking

  ½ cup or 108g

• Crushed red pepper flakes

  1 tsp or 0.3g

• Garlic

  Raw

  4 cloves, minced or 12g

• Parsley

  Raw

  ½ cup or 30g

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the pasta and cook, stirring after 1 minute, until about three-quarters of the way done.
2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the red pepper flakes and garlic and cook until just beginning to turn golden brown, then add the parsley. Add a ladle of the pasta water to stop the cooking process and allow the flavors to combine.
3. When the pasta is three-quarters of the way cooked, remove it from the water and add it to the saute pan. Add more pasta water as necessary to finish cooking the pasta, letting the liquid reduce as the pasta finishes to form a sauce.
4. Season with salt if desired and transfer to a large serving dish. Drizzle with more olive oil and serve.
