My sister texted me a yummy pasta dish she created. I didn’t get the exact measurements for everything, but we tried it out and here is what we came up with (and it was GOOD!):

Sweet and Savory Pasta Recipe:

Ingredients (5-7 servings)

  • 10-12 oz. penned rigate or farfalle pasta (I used whole wheat penne)
  • 1-2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive  oil
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • about 1 Tbsp. minced garlic
  • 3 zucchinis, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. dried rosemary
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • cooked meatballs (however many you want to make – we made 9), warmed in the microwave
  • about 4 Tbsp. coconut milk
  • about 1 Tbsp. honey
  • about 1 C. artichoke pesto marinara sauce
  • about 1 C. roasted garlic alfredo sauce

Instructions:

  1. Cook pasta according to package. Drain, run under cold water, and set aside.

4. Serve over pasta and a fresh green salad on the side goes great with this dish!
