Pasta with Mozzarella, Peppers, and Arugula

I'm on a pasta kick (read: feeling a little poor). But, with spring coming up, it's a good time to explore some lighter pastas with seasonal vegetables. This particular recipe uses a couple of my favorite vegetables, red peppers and arugula.

Pasta with Mozzarella, Peppers, and Arugula
Serves 4-6

1 box short pasta (ziti, penne etc)
8 oz. mozzarella cut into bite sized pieces
2 bunches of arugula, washed (you can also just buy an arugula salad)
1-2 red peppers
1/4 cup olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

Cook the pasta. While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a large pan. Cook the peppers until tender. Add the arugula and cook until wilted. Add the pasta, cheese, salt & pepper. Ta da! Dinner.

All told, the meal costs between $12-$15, depending on how much you spend on the cheese.
