A Quick Vegetarian Pasta Dinner

All in all, this recipe should take the amount of time it takes to cook the pasta.  A speedy, delicious, nutritious no-brainer.

Whole Wheat Pasta with White Beans and Spinach

Ingredients:
Whole Wheat Pasta
White beans (canned or homemade, if you have the time)
Spaghetti sauce (prepared or homemade - we're not snobs here)
Fresh Spinach (preferably baby)
Yummy yummy goat cheese
Olive oil to taste (extra virgin - because, evidently, you can never have too many virgins)

[To save time, cook the pasta and sauce at the same time]

Pasta:
cook the pasta until al dente - in salted water w/a little olive oil to keep it from sticking
drain and set aside

Sauce:
Heat spaghetti sauce and white beans together in a pot

Assemble:
Pour the spaghettie sauce bean mixture over the pasta
top with spinach leaves and toss it all together
garnish w/yummy yummy goat cheese and a drizzle of EV olive oil

enjoy.
