Pasta alla Norma

what to grab:

• Eggplant

• Avocado oil

• Garlic powder

• Salt/pepper

• Pasta of choice (I used mung bean in the picture)

• Fresh arugula

• Jarred marinara sauce

• Parmesan

• Fresh basil

what to do:

• Set oven to 425 F

• Cut eggplant into bite sized cubes and rub with avocado oil, garlic powder, salt/pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast at 425 until crispy (~25 mins). Shake pieces halfway through so that all ends are crispy.

• While eggplant is halfway done cooking, make pasta according to package instructions.

• In a large bowl, add fresh arugula, cooked pasta & baked eggplant.

• Top with marinara sauce, parmesan and fresh basil. Add extra salt/pepper to taste.

• ENJOY!
