Vegetarian spaghetti with mushrooms and spinach makes an easy, healthy one-pot pasta dinner that’s ready in 25 minutes!

A meatless Monday dinner is definitely in order for me this week.

I had a fabulous time at the lake with my girls for our annual boat day this weekend! We cruised around, floated in the lake on noodles for a long time, sipping our drinks, and ate dinner on the porch, overlooking the water.

Lots of sunshine and swimming. Lots of good conversation and laughter. Lots of food and drinks. 😀

And now I need to recover. With healthy, healing foods that are still delicious and comforting.

And easy. And fast.



ONE-POT VEGETARIAN SPAGHETTI

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

INGREDIENTS

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 (8 oz.) package button mushrooms, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 (14.5 oz.) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
10 oz. thin spaghetti noodles (I use whole wheat)
3 cups fresh spinach or baby spinach
1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Italian-style hard cheese, plus extra for serving
For serving: 1/4 cup fresh chopped basil or parsley (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onion and mushrooms and saute for 5-7 minutes, until tender and the liquid from the mushrooms has been mostly cooked off.
  • Add garlic and season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes (if using) and saute another 30 seconds.
  • Increase heat to high then add canned tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil.
  • Add spaghetti noodles and stir until they wilt and fit in the pot. Cover the pot, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes. (Your liquid should be at a low boil this whole time.)
