One Pot Mushroom Spinach Pasta

Here's a good meatless recipe that is also easy because you throw everything into one pot and you have a meal. I am looking forward to trying this recipe for Mushroom Spinach Pasta.

Update:  I have made this recipe a few times now and adapted it to something I like. The first time I made it following the recipe above, I found it starchy and tasteless. My family ate it, but I did not like it. It needed flavor. The second time I made it I decided to add pesto to the final product and that was a big improvement. The last time I made it I waited to add the pasta until the water had come to a boil and that was the best version yet.

So, here's MY adaptation of Mushroom Spinach Pasta. 

Ingredients:

1 carton sliced baby bello mushrooms (Nice, meaty flavor.)
1 bag of spinach (I used frozen spinach as well. It worked fine. It was more spinach (10 oz.), but it wasn't too much.)
1/2 onion, diced
1 lb. pasta (I like fettuccine, linguine, or penne.)
1 jar (6.7oz.) pesto
Parmesan or mozzarella cheese for topping (optional)

Bought at Aldi

Instructions:

1. Put mushrooms, spinach, and onion in large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil.

2. Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook according to package.

3. Drain out all water after pasta is cooked. Add contents of pesto jar and stir.

4. You can add freshly shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese on top of each serving after plating.
