How to Make Quick And Easy Primavera

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, until softened.

  3. Stir in 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, 1 cup marinated artichoke hearts (drained), 1 cup frozen corn (thawed), and 5 ounces fresh spinach.
  4. Cook for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until spinach wilts.
  5. Add 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil.
  6. Cook for another 3-5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Meanwhile, cook 1 pound fettuccine pasta according to package directions.
