Essentially, this is pasta aglio e olio (garlic and oil) with the addition of cooked greens and Parmesan. The prep can be done in the time it takes to bring a big pot of pasta. We're all familiar with red sauce or white sauce to accompany pasta, but I think we need to pay more attention to green sauce. Traditional basil pesto is probably the most well known green sauce but it isn't exactly healthy.
