Pasta Floren-bean

I had one of those crazy-get-home-late-and-don’t-know-what-to-make-for-dinner nights.  So, I looked in the cabinets and settled on just plain gluten free pasta with tomato sauce.  But then I looked a little deeper into the cabinets and decided to jazz it up a bit with some canned white beans, frozen spinach, and onion I had lying around.  It turned out wonderfully delicious!

Pasta Floren-bean

Pieces:

1. one half box/bag of gluten free pasta (any size, any shape!)
2. one half bottle tomato sauce
3. one quarter of an onion, diced
4. 2 cups frozen spinach
5. one can drained white beans
6. 2 tbsp. olive oil
7. 1 tsp. dried oregano or parsley
8. salt and pepper to taste

Process:

1. Cook pasta according to package directions.
2. While the pasta is cooking, sauté the diced onion in the olive oil over medium heat.
3. When the onion is tender, add the spinach and drained white beans.  Sprinkle with dried oregano or parsley, and salt and pepper.
4. Continue to sauté until spinach is cooked through.
5. Add the jarred tomato sauce and stir to combine.
6. When the pasta is done and drained, add your floren-bean sauce to the pasta and serve hot!
