Ingredients

13.25 oz whole wheat spaghetti uncooked
1 white onion thinly sliced
4-5 cups green cabbage (about half of a cabbage) thinly sliced
14.5 oz canned diced tomatoes
1 tsp dried spices (oregano, italian mix or parsley)
4 cloves of garlic thinly sliced or crushed
½-1 cup fresh basil more for serving
4 cups veggie broth or water
salt and pepper to taste
3-4 handfulls of spinach

Instructions

In a large pan or pot, combine all the ingredients except for the spinach (everything raw, including the noodles!).
On medium-high heat, bring to a simmer and then reduce the heat to medium-low. Keep cooking, covered, for about 12 minutes. Stir frequently to make sure the noodles don't stick together or to the bottom of the pot.
When the noodles are cooked al dente, turn off the heat, add the spinach and combine well. The spinach should wilt quickly. If most of the water evaporated and you want the noodles to cook longer, then add a splash of water, cover and cook until the noodles are done to your taste.
Serve immediately. Add some extra chopped fresh basil, red pepper flakes and vegan parmesan cheese if desired.
