Note
For a richer flavor, you can substitute half of the water with beef broth.
If the pasta seems too firm after 30 minutes, add a splash more water and continue simmering for 5-10 minutes until desired tenderness is reached.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove with a tablespoon of water to restore moisture.
Feel free to add other vegetables like diced tomatoes, mushrooms, or spinach for extra nutrition and texture.
