Sam

Ingredients:

8 oz. Bow Tie Pasta, uncooked
2 tbsp U-Bake Olive Oil
1 bunch scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (green and white parts)
1 ½ tsp. U-Bake Ground Cumin
1 ½ tablespoons fresh lime juice
15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
salt and pepper to taste
8 cherry tomatoes, rinsed and quartered
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Directions:

Prepare pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add scallions and cumin and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice. Add the salsa, salt and pepper and toss to coat.  Drain the pasta, return it to the pot and add the bean mixture. Cook over medium heat until the sauce is boiling and thick enough to lightly coat the pasta. Remove the pot from heat and gently stir in cherry tomatoes and cilantro. Serve immediately.
