Ingredients

12 oz spaghetti (whole grain or regular)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 zucchini, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup spinach leaves, roughly chopped

4 cups vegetable broth

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh basil, for garnish

Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until translucent.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the chopped red bell pepper and zucchini to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the veggies are tender.

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil.

Once boiling, add the spaghetti, cherry tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well to combine.

Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spaghetti is al dente and has absorbed most of the broth.

Uncover the pot and fold in the chopped spinach, allowing it to wilt for about 2 minutes.

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil and optional grated Parmesan cheese.
