Artichoke and arugula pasta

Pasta and macaroni Italian cuisine

My roommate Ariel and I used to make a super easy lemon pasta dish in college that consisted of just pasta, lemon zest, garlic, and parmesan. It was fast, easy, and delicious. Last night, I had Ariel and a couple friends over for St. Patricks Day dinner, and served this jazzed up, green pasta dish as a tribute to our cheapskate college dinners. It was the perfect early spring dish, and totally hit the spot!
