Name: Green Emporium Pasta with Puttanesca Sauce
Yield: Makes 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 can (28 oz) peeled Italian plum tomatoes; 3 chopped cloves garlic; 2 tbsp olive oil; 6 pitted and halved kalamata olives; 6 pitted and halved Spanish green olives; 1 tbsp capers; 1 lb linguine; 1 tbsp chopped fresh basil; Grated Parmesan

This hearty — and heart-healthy — pasta comes together in a flash. Mangia!

Puttanesca may sound like an Italian specialty to slave over, but don't be intimidated — you can make this sauce in minutes. Michael Collins, chef and co-owner of the Green Emporium in Colrain, Massachusetts, designed this dish, which marries old-world flavor with modern-day convenience. Its healthy ingredients — lycopene-loaded tomatoes, heart-smart olive oil, exotic olives, and capers — are as easy to keep on hand as that emergency jar of sauce.
