Chorizo and SunBlush tomato penne

Dish Details:


INGREDIENTS:

Chorizo and SunBlush tomato pennePenne 200g
Chorizo 150g, sliced
Garlic 1 clove, finely sliced
SunBlush tomatoes 10, chopped (find them in Sainsbury's)
Red wine 1 glass
Flat-leaf parsley a small handful, chopped


PREPARATION:
1. Cook the pasta according to pack instructions. Meanwhile, cook the chorizo for 2-3 minutes in a non-stick pan. Add the garlic and tomato and season. Cook for a couple more minutes then add the wine. Simmer gently for 4-5 minutes then stir through the parsley and pasta.

GI assessment

Pasta is a classic low-Gi food. Watch the portion size as too much will cause a faster rise in blood glucose - so divide this between three and serve it with salad.

Recipe extra

Add a tin of chopped tomatoes instead of the sunblush tomatoes if you'd like more sauce and serve with parmesan.

Brilliant wine match

red wineVineyard X Garnacha 2006, Campo de Borja, Spain (£4.49 or £2.99 with three for two, Thresher) is a bargain with its juicy, crunchy red fruit and is ideal for a hearty supper.
