CLASSIC ITALIAN SPAGHETTI POMODORO | Welcome to the Beef w/ Matty & Coco

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grana padano

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Boil water in a large pot and add salt until it tastes like the sea.

Cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.

While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add canned tomatoes to the skillet, breaking them up with a spoon.

Season with salt and black pepper, and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add fresh basil to the sauce and stir to combine.

Drain the spaghetti, reserving some pasta water.

Add the drained spaghetti to the sauce, tossing to coat.

If needed, add reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.

Serve immediately, garnished with additional basil and grated parmesan cheese.
