Pasta With Salsa Crudo and Green Beans image

You can make this uncooked grated tomato sauce while you're waiting for the water to boil for the green beans and pasta. Choose a type of noodle that will catch the sauce, such as orecchiette, penne, fusilli or farfalle.

Time 20m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 pound ripe, locally grown tomatoes
1 to 2 garlic cloves, green shoots removed, finely chopped or pureed
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon balsamic or sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
6 ounces green beans, trimmed
3/4 pound orecchiette, penne, farfalle or fusilli
2 tablespoons slivered basil leaves
1/4 cup (1 ounce) freshly grated Parmesan, pecorino or ricotta salata for serving

Steps:

  • Begin heating a large pot of water. Cut the tomatoes in half across the equator, and grate on the large holes of a box grater into a wide bowl. Stir in the garlic, salt and pepper, vinegar and olive oil.
  • When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the green beans. Parboil four minutes. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, then drain and dry on paper towels. Keep the water in the pot boiling for the pasta. Cut the beans into two-inch lengths, and add to the bowl with the tomatoes.
  • Cook the pasta in the boiling water until al dente. Follow the timing instructions on the package, but check the pasta about one minute sooner than the suggested cooking time. When it's done, drain and toss with the tomato mixture, basil and cheese.

MEXICAN PASTA SALAD WITH SALSA



Mexican Pasta Salad With Salsa image

Very different from the other pasta salads already posted here. Got this from makesameal.com. Very simple to make with few ingredients. You could get creative and add more ingredients like corn, beans, and olives but this is a good base. Nice for the warmer weather. We loved this. I used Miracle Whip, which I like better in this salad, and 2 cloves garlic for mine. Mild salsa goes down better with my kids but use a stronger one if you like.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 14m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 (16 ounce) cans cannellini beans
48 ounces tomato sauce
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb small shell pasta

Steps:

  • Boil the pasta shells according to package directions.
  • Add salt to the pasta water.
  • Heat olive oil in a pot and add minced garlic.
  • Add cannelloni beans AND the liquid from the cans. I like to mash one of the cans of beans up just a bit, to help thicken the sauce.
  • Add tomato sauce.
  • Mix well and simmer until pasta is done boiling.
  • The longer you let the sauce simmer, the more the flavors will meld. Drain pasta. Serve the pasta with the sauce over it. Enjoy!
  • Note: this is great with garlic bread!
