1 tablespoon Olive oil
2 tablespoons Pine nuts
1 tablespoon Butter
1 tablespoon Chopped fresh basil or parsley
Paprika

Preparation

Heat olive oil in a small skillet. Lightly saute pine nuts. Drain the cooked pasta; gently toss it with the butter and fresh basil or parsley and sauteed pine nuts. Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the top of each serving.
