Ingredients

  • ½ cup rotini pasta
  • 7 medium cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ medium lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • ¾ cup arugula

Directions

Step 1
Bring 3 cups water to a rolling boil in a medium pot. Stir in rotini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and let cool for 3 minutes.

Step 2
Place rotini in a serving bowl. Add tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper; toss until well combined. Add arugula and toss.

Cook’s Note:

Use your favorite pasta shape instead of rotini, if desired. Follow cooking directions on the box. I used strozzapreti.
