One pot Garlic Spinach Pasta

Seriously though….what is better that throwing everything into one pot and having it taste completely awesome? These one pot meals are so trendy right now….and this garlic spinach pasta is a huge hit! I used whole grain linguine which is higher in fiber—so a little will fill you up quicker. One serving of this pasta is just a tad over 300 calories…serve it up with some grilled chicken or shrimp and dinner is done:)

We still do our meal planning—so everyone gets to pick a meal of the week. This was peanut’s pick last week—I made it along side of a super easy oven breaded chicken that was perfect. Tasted like a chicken parmesan….but way easier!
