dice 3 cloves garlic and begin roasting in olive oil at medium heat in cast iron
cut up as much vegetable as you want, i usually go for some combo of broccoli, zucchini, spinach, kale, chard, red bellpepper, and corn. cook as timing dictates with each, i usually like my zucchini & pepper & corn seared some. the leafy greens let off a lot of water so sometimes good to cook those separately
for sauce
dice 3 cloves garlic and 1/4 of an onion & begin roasting both together at half heat in any pan, i use a ceramic nonstick
cube 2-3 tomatoes depending on size
once garlic & onion sufficiently roasted put in tomato sauce and stir occasionally whilst allowing it to thicken, lower heat to simmer once sufficiently thick
cook pasta until al denté, save some pasta water for thinning the tomato sauce, add strained pasta to cast iron with vegetables, stir well, then add sauce to this. and voila

- brown some chopped garlic on pan with olive oil and italian seasoning, s&p.
- add whichever shape pasta (sometimes i do this with orzo instead of like penne), one squeezed lemon‘s juice, and not too much boiling water (enough so that it cooks the pasta, but also so it evaporates by the end)
- when the pasta’s just before al dente, and there’s just a little pasta water left, i add double cream and emulsify, let it cook for a bit.
- turn off heat and toss in grated parmesan, parsley (or basil) (or fresh thyme), and lemon zest.
tasty, zesty and fresh but doesn’t take much time or effort! takes abt as long as ur pasta takes to boil + a few mins for chopping the garlic.
otherwise, i have sauces like napolitana or pesto sauce made in large amounts, so all i have to do is boil some pasta for them throughout the week. or, an even quicker one is if ur groceries sell fresh egg noodles and chopped veg, just add some teriyaki sauce and that’s it)

i throw cherry tomatoes with a small slit and tons of garlic in a small pot with a lot of olive oil and red pepper. let it confit for like an hour. add in basil for the last fifteen min. separate the oil, blend confit mix with an immersion blender and then use it as a sauce over some pasta.
the oil can stay in the fridge for bread dipping!
