- 4 sundried tomatoes chopped
- 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil/Sundried Tomato Olive Oil
- 2 teaspoons parsley chopped (or herb of your choice)
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon pine nuts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 small lime squeezed over the top
Instructions
- Prepare pasta as per instructions on the box in a large pot of salty water. Drain pasta.
- Heat olive oil and garlic in a large pan over medium-high heat, until garlic is cooked slightly for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Ensure all your ingredients are nearby.
- Toss the pasta in the olive oil to coat, then immediately add the salt, pepper and lemon juice.
- Toss the pasta until all ingredients are mixed and turn off heat (you don't want to dry out the pasta).

- Serve immediately, or if reheating, microwave with a little bit of water in the bowl.
