- 2 teaspoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 3 cloves of crushed garlic
- 2 cups of heaped Baby Spinach
- 1 jar Marinated Artichoke hearts liquid drained
- 2 tablespoons of pesto sauce

Directions:
Prepare the Sedanini noodles per package directions. I always add 1 teaspoon salt and olive oil in boiling water .
Drain the cooked noodles and rinse under cold water for a minute.
While noodles are resting, add olive oil in the pot and warm it up. Once heated , add crushed garlic and let it sizzle for a minute or two until you sense the aroma.
Add in the baby spinach and stir well. Leaves will wilt in couple minutes. Turn off the heat.
Add drained Artichoke Hearts and Sedanini noodles. Add Pesto sauce, salt and Italian Seasoning blend. Grind or crush some fresh black pepper on top. Toss well but be gentle.
Yummy colorful dinner is ready. Feel free to adjust the seasoning.
