what's for dinner tonight: farfalle with spinach, onion and mushroom and cheesy, garlic bread sticks

Cheesy, Garlic Bread

Ingredients:

6 cloves of garlic, minced very finely

1 bag of shredded mozzarella cheese

Pizza crust (I used Pillsbury)

1/4 cup of olive oil 

2 tsp. of garlic powder

1 tbsp. of dried basil

Preheat your oven according to your pizza crust directions. The Pillsbury crust I used was set to 425. Prepare the crust by rolling it onto a sprayed pizza sheet. Mince the garlic and add the olive oil and garlic powder. Drizzle this mixture on top of the entire pizza crust. Add the mozzarella and sprinkle the dried basil on top. Bake according to the package (13 minutes for me!)

Farfalle with Spinach, Onion and Mushroom

Ingredients:

4 cups of spinach, chopped in 1/2 inch pieces

1 small red onion, sliced

2 cups of mushrooms, sliced

3 cloves of garlic, minced

1 lbs. of farfalle noodles

1/2 tbsp of dried basil

1/2 tbsp. of dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil

Boil the farfalle according to the packaging in salted water.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil on medium-high heat and saute the garlic and onion. Add the dried oregano and basil.

When the onion and garlic starts to yellow, add the mushroom.

Wait until the mushrooms sweat, then add the spinach, cut in 1/2 inch pieces.

Toss in the drained farfalle and salt and pepper to taste. 

Add Parmesan cheese to taste.

Enjoy! Nom, nom, nom.
