Garlic? Check! Thyme? Amazing! Goat Cheese? Irresistable! Put it all together and you've got a whole lot of Awesome!!! This recipe is so simple and so tasty, you may never make spaghetti and marinara again:) Serve this with some greens and crusty bread and you'll be a happy camper.

Ingredients

  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme - leaves picked
  • A good handful of goat cheese

  4. Put the pasta in and cook al dente
