Should have taken a picture...

Tonight I made a family favorite but for the first time used the fresh spinach and spring onions from our CSA box.

The boy said. "It's always good, this is even better".

A bonus is that it cooks in one pot.


Pasta with Feta, Spinach and Tomatoes

1 lb. short pasta like penne or rotelle
olive oil
1-2 clove garlic minced
2+ bunches of fresh spinach, washed and coarsely chopped (or 1 lb. frozen)
1/2 bunch spring onions chopped
1 28oz. can diced tomatoes
8-10 oz. crumbled feta cheese

Cook pasta until al dente and set aside in a colander to drain.
To the empty pasta pot, add a couple of tablespoons olive oil.
Saute garlic briefly, add spinach and cook until soft.
Add green onions and tomatoes and cook a few minutes,
Return pasta to pot and heat through.
Gently stir in feta and serve.

Note: I usually use either brown rice penne or whole wheat rotelle from Trader Joe's. They can stand up to the heavy sauce.
I always use the Pastures of Eden feta also from Trader Joe's. It is less salty and more creamy than the less expensive feta.
