Mushroom and Spinach Farfalle

We are in spring break mode and we decided to have a staycation this year. In past years, we usually plan a local getaway, a road trip or a quick flight, but this year was one of those years where we just want to stay home and just “be.” In between spring cleaning, gardening and a bathroom remodel during our staycation, I still have to find time to constantly make quick, balanced meals that are satisfying and kid friendly.
Pasta always gets a “thumbs up” in my home, so that was first on my meal prep list. I love using Barilla for my pasta dishes and I was excited to give their Barilla ProteinPLUS variety a try during our time at home this week. Protein? Yes! Barilla ProteinPlus gets its source of lean protein from a simple blend of egg whites, grains, lentils and chickpeas. What a great combination of tasty ingredients that give it great texture too. This delicious and wholesome pasta provides 17g of protein (per 3.5-ounce portion) from all natural vegetarian ingredients. Plus, it’s a good source of fiber and ALA Omega 3.
Mushrooms and spinach are two of my favorite pasta pairings. They cook quickly and are packed with nutrients. With Barilla ProteinPLUS ready in just 10 minutes, I knew this meal would be ready in just a jiffy. You really can’t beat the benefits, tasty flavor and convenience of this recipe. Plus, a little goes a long way when feeding a large crowd.
Barilla not only offers a protein rich pasta, you can also find a gluten-free variety in the pasta isle.
