I’m so excited to share this simple recipe with you!! It’s something I put together quickly but oh it was so delicious!!!
Easy Angel hair & Lentil Ingredients
- 3oz Angel Hair no. 9
- 3oz Whole grain whole wheat thin spaghetti
What I do is I take about a handful from each box. When I boil the water, I add whole wheat spaghetti first for 6 mins then for the last 2 mins I add the Angel hair no.9 then add a dash of salt to the pasta.
For sauce: - 3 crushed garlic cloves
- 1/2 diced onion
- 1 dry pint Sweet grape tomatoes cut in half. I added one more tomato because the container wasn’t full
- 3 Tbsp Olive oil plus more if needed at the end
- 3 tbsp wine- I used Carlo Rossi Burgundy
- 1-3 tsp Italian seasonings
- 1-3 tsp dried Parsley,
- Salt & Pepper to taste
On medium low heat, sauté garlic and onion in the olive oil for apx 5 mins or til onion is translucent .. add a 1/2 cup water, then wine for 5 or so mins. Add cooked pasta the toss together, then add Italian seasonings, dried parsley & pepper 🙂 If desired add another dash of olive oil 🙂
Serve with your favorite meat, Parmesan cheese or mozzarella, or plant based protein like Lentils!! So delicious!!

Hope you enjoy this simple dinner!! I heard Italians cook with few ingredients 🙂 So I had to try this just not only because my Italian friend encourage it but also because I didn’t have any jarred sauce in the house nor did I have crushed tomatoes to make a simple sauce like Mama Marissa taught me!! 😂 check out this story cooking with her for other ideas 🙂 Authentic Italian cooking with Marissa, fun and frugal tips 🙂
But the Angel hair w lentils will be a meal I’ll be making again 🙂 hope you like it too!!
Hope everyone enjoyed another gorgeous day here in Maine or wherever you may be found 🙂 🥰🥰😘😘 Bon apetite!!
