Linguine Red Clam Sauce with Black Olives



This is the second or third time I made pasta with clam sauce, but I havent made the dish with tomatoes or black olives before, and it was good.  The tomatoes added ofcourse the lycopenes, which are the most powerful antioxidents out there.  Clams contain protein, iron, potassium vitamin A and folate, and olives contain vitamin E, iron, copper and dietary fiber. 

12 ounces linguine or spaghetti
1 can clams
1 can diced tomato
1 cup sliced black olives
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried parsley
salt and pepper to taste

boil noodles according to instruction
heat oil in skillet on low.   Add diced tomatos and garlic powder, saute for 10 minutes. Add clams, black olives and salt and pepper to taste.
When pasta is ready, toss in skillet with clam sauce, saute another 2 minutes
devide in bowls, top with parsley
