    Simple, tasty recipe that the whole family will like. Instead of spinach, greens could include arugula, watercress or endive. For a more substantial meal, add shredded chicken.

    Ingredients

    • 1 1b pasta
    • salt
    • 1 cup diced yellow onion (1 medium)
    • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 2 cups washed and chopped fresh spinach
    • 1/4 cup water
    • 2 1/4 tsp lemon juice
    • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

    Directions

    1. 1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
    2. 2. In a large saute pan, saute the onions in the oil until lightly browned. Add the garlic and cool for 2 minutes taking care not to burn. Add the spinach and water, then cover the skillet and cook for 3 more minutes. When the spinach has wilted, add the pasta and toss to heat through.
    3. 3. Add the lemon and pepper and toss again. Top with feta cheese and serve.

      Loved it! Used linguine pasta. The combo of the feta and spinach is really fresh; this is a great summertime dish. Used the juice of one lemon. Thanks for sharing, Lindsey.
