Spinach and Feta Pasta

So I was a little nervous making a "non meat meal" for Mr Rossy - but he actually REALLY liked this!!  It was SOOO easy to make - so that made me even more excited....it literally took like 15 minutes!!  Ross did say "this would be even better with Italian sausage" - but it really didn't need it...and that would just add to the meal prep time anyways!  ahhh I'm super excited to eat this for leftovers :)
Serves 8 - OBB Cookbook

Ingredients
8oz penne pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 loose cup chopped fresh mushrooms
3 cups fresh spinach (don't chop it)
28 oz can diced tomatoes
4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
salt / pepper

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add pasta.  Cook according to package directions.

While the pasta is cooking, heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Add onion, garlic, and mushrooms and cook until tender.  Add spinach and cook until wilted.  Add tomatoes, heat through, and then add drained pasta and crumbled feta.  Season with salt and pepper.  Heat through and serve; you can top with extra feta too!
