Time 37m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb spaghetti or 1 lb linguine
1/2 small head savoy cabbage, outer leaves removed and shredded (about 3 cups)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons margarine
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 cup low fat cottage cheese
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 -2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta one minute less than the package directions indicate. Reserve one cup of the cooking water, drain the pasta, and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the margarine to the hot oil. When the margarine foams, add the cabbage and sprinkle with salt. Over medium heat, sauté the cabbage until it begins to soften, but does not brown (about 10-15 minutes). Add the lemon zest and vinegar, cooking an additional 2 minutes until the zest becomes fragrant.
  • Over low heat, fold in the pasta, a little of the pasta water, the cottage cheese, and lemon juice. Sprinkle with the sugar and season with salt to taste. Add additional pasta water if the mixture is too dry. Serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of cabbage, but this dish was surprisingly good. I would definitely make it again.

The cabbage was a bit too crunchy for me. I think it would be better if it was cooked for a little longer.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use a little more seasoning.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I usually add a little bit of extra soy sauce and sesame oil to give it a bit more flavor.
