8 oz spaghetti noodles
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon sriracha
1 cup baby spinach
2 stalks green onions, chopped
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Boil a pot of water over high heat and cook the spaghetti noodles according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
- In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Stir in soy sauce, maple syrup, nutritional yeast, and sriracha into the garlic-infused oil. Mix well to combine all the flavors together.
- Add the cooked noodles to the pan, tossing them gently to coat evenly with the garlic sauce. Ensure each noodle is adequately covered.
- Introduce baby spinach to the pan, stirring occasionally, until it wilts and blends into the noodles, adding both flavor and nutrition.
- Season with salt and black pepper according to taste. Be sure to taste beforehand as soy sauce adds saltiness.
- Garnish with chopped green onions right before serving for a burst of freshness and a splash of color on your dish.
