Spaghetti with spinach, lemon, and garlic


This is a great throw together right quick dinner.
You can even add shrimp or chicken to it and it would be the perfect meal.
I like to add lots more lemon, so I add more juice than the 1 lemon, but play with it and see what you prefer!


You will need:
1 lb spaghetti or angel hair
6 Tbsp evoo
8 garlic cloves, crushed or minced
zest of 1 lemon
juice of 1 lemon, ( i like more)
10 oz bag of baby spinach

To Make:
In a skillet heat 6 Tbsp evoo over medium/low heat. Add garlic and cook 10-12 minutes to gently cook the garlic. Add lemon zest and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to the package directions. Drain pasta well and transfer to a large bowl. Immediately add spinach and garlic lemon oil and toss everything together.
