Spinach and Chicken Pasta


Despite our tendency for things less than healthy (cookies, smore's brownies, pancakes), we can still make quick and healthy dinners. From prep to finish, this dish only took about 30 minutes, and fed three girls with leftovers.
Served in a bowl or topped with parmesian, this dish could be aesthetically amazing.

Ingredients:
   2 chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips
   lots of spinach
   2 cloves garlic
   half an onion
   mushrooms, cut up
   worcestershire sauce (how do you pronounce this?)
   pasta (we did a mix of penne and rigittoni, using up open boxes)
   oil/butter for cooking

Bring water to a boil in a pot, add in the pasta.

Heat the butter or oil in a nonstick pan. Throw in the garlic and chicken, cook it, add a dash or four of worcestershire sauce. Throw in mushrooms and onion. Let it cook for a bit, before throwing in the spinach. Once the spinach has cooked down, add more worestershire sauce depending on personal taste.

Drain the pasta, and top with the chicken and vegetables.

No matter how exhausted you are after work, this will taste so much better than just eating instant oatmeal or that leftover slice of pizza that you forget how long its been in your fridge. Trust us, why do you think we all cook together.
