Categories: Pasta

Ingredients

• * 1 pound organic whole wheat linguine
• * 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
• * 6–8 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
• * 2 cups cleaned and sliced mushrooms
• * 4 cups washed baby spinach
• * 1/2 cup pine nuts, lightly toasted
• * 3/4 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
• * fresh ground black pepper

Directions

1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Sauté garlic in olive oil a few minutes, then add mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are just tender. Set aside. Place spinach into a colander. When pasta is cooked, pour it with its cooking water over the spinach in the colander. As the pasta drains, it cooks the spinach. Transfer pasta and spinach to a large serving bowl. Add mushroom mixture and toss. Top with pine nuts, cheese and pepper.
