Pasta with Tomato Sauce and Lemony Beans | Everyday Food with Sarah Carey

Before meatless eating was as popular as it is today, pasta night meant that all vegetarians got was spaghetti and meatballs without the meatballs. A little dull, right? Well, here’s a version of pasta night that everyone can enjoy.
Sarah’s Tip of the Day:
First, get a pot of pasta shells cooking. Then make a simple tomato sauce out of olive oil, onion, garlic, canned tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and a bay leaf. The final touch is what I like to call “magic beans” — cannellini beans kicked up with some garlic, lemon zest and juice, and parsley. Serve all three of these elements together and top with some grated Parmesan — you won’t believe what an easy, delicious dinner it is! Watch the video, and I’ll show you the secret to adding flavor to canned beans, and why pasta water should be your secret weapon in the kitchen.
