Cooking Steps
- Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
- Preheat the broiler to high.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- To the boiling water, add penne. Cook for 12-14 min, until tender but still firm to the bite.
- Reserve 1 cup (2 cups) pasta water.
- Strain penne, then return to the pot, off heat.
- While pasta cooks, peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- Roughly chop spinach. (TIP: Place spinach in a bowl, then roughly chop using a pair of kitchen scissors.)
- To a small bowl, add ricotta, half the Italian Herb Spice Blend and half the garlic. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then zucchini and peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-5 min, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.
- While veggies cook, to a small microwaveable bowl, add remaining garlic and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Microwave for 30 sec, until butter melts.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Cut ciabatta into 4 equal slices (you will have 8 slices for 4 servings), then arrange on a baking sheet.
- Spread garlic butter over top.
- Sprinkle remaining Italian Herb Spice Blend over the veggies. Stir to coat.
- Add cream, pesto, stock powder and half the reserved pasta water. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until simmering.
- To the pan with sauce and veggies, add penne and spinach. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until spinach wilts. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add remaining reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
- Broil garlic-butter toasts in the middle of the oven for 2-4 min, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on buns so they don't burn.)
- Divide pasta and garlic-butter toasts between bowls.
- Dollop garlic-ricotta clouds over top.
