PASTA W/ SPINACH & MEATBALLS
A quick weekday meal. You can easily sub a different type of pasta too. I used premade chicken meatballs for ease but the real homemade thing would just improve this recipe. This came from Real Simple but I did make some changes.

Steps:
- Cook the meatballs according to the recipe directions.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package directions. Reserve ¼ cup of the cooking water; drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
- While the meatballs and pasta are cooking, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, thyme, red pepper flakes and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic near end to avoid over cooking.
- Toss the mushroom mixture with the pasta, meatballs, spinach, pecorino, and the reserved cooking water. Season with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
