I was talking with Zohreh, one of my co-workers today about quick and easy meals … and today  because I worked until 5.00 pm and had to do some shopping ( for Christmas presents 🙂 ) it was one of that days when I had to improvise and  fix a meal in 30 minutes until someone very hungry will come home 🙂 …

This is one of the easygoing and quick recipe I can imagine and can be done in so many versions : with mushrooms ( canned or pickled ) or with green stuffed olives or capers …

It took me even 30 minutes to have it done and it was so delicious !!!  🙂

Ingredients

• 300 gr bad of whole wheat penne rigate
• 4 garlic cloves

• 3- 4 tbsp olive oil
• 2 x 120 gr artichoke hearts ( marinated)
• 2 tbsp mild salsa
• 2 tbsp barbecue sauce

Meanwhile you are cooking the pasta according with the package you can have the sauce done. Follow the next pictures for more details :

Bon Appetite !!!
