  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 pinch(s) of oregano

  • salt and pepper
  • 1 handful of baby spinach

  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

Cook the pasta as usual and drain. While the pasta is cooling, place the halved tomatoes, cut-side up, on a baking sheet. Sprinkle the tomatoes with olive oil, oregano, and thyme and bake for about 10-15 minutes in an oven preheated to 200°C. Let everything cool completely! To save time, the pasta and tomatoes can be prepared the day before. For the dressing, combine the vinegar with the mustard and 4 teaspoons of water. Finally, toss the pasta with the tomatoes, spinach, arugula, and lima beans and add the dressing.
