This easy weekday pasta is a good way to use up leftover chicken, but the chicken can just as easily be left out to make it a satisfying vegetarian meal.

Ingredients
  • 16 oz. package angel hair pasta
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 8-oz package of sliced mushrooms
  • 1 10-oz package of fresh spinach
  • 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp crushed red pepper (or to taste)
  • 1/4 lemon
  • 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 4 oz. mozzarella cheese, cut into cubes
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions
  1. Put water for pasta to boil on stovetop.
  2. In a large skillet, saute garlic in oil over medium heat until the garlic takes on a little color, but do not allow to turn golden.
  3. Add mushrooms. Saute 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
  4. Add spinach, stirring frequently until cooked down and wilted.
  5. Add red pepper, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook 1-2 minutes longer.
  6. Take the pan off heat and add lemon juice. Toss to distribute evenly.
  7. Add pasta to the water and cook. When the pasta is ready (2-3 minutes), drain. Return pasta to pot and mix in spinach-mushroom mixture, chicken, and mozzarella cubes. Serve immediately.
