Lemon Garlic Pasta


This dish is made from rice pasta, but you can use any gluten-free pasta you like.  I buy mine at No Frills.  It's a cinch to make.  Serve it with a garden salad and you have a nice light dinner.

You will need:
  • 1 package of gluten-free pasta
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup of grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 cup margarine or butter
  • a few tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. chili flakes
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • salt & pepper
Cook the pasta and drain.  Melt the margarine or butter and add the olive oil.  You need the oil to prevent the margarine from burning.  Add the garlic and chili flakes.  Once the flavor is released, add the lemon juice and oregano.  Stir in the cooked pasta.  Add the Parmesan and heat through.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.
