What to Serve with Pasta (That's Not Salad)
Put down the lettuce and consider making one of these eight substantial sides instead.
By Lynn Andriani
5-Minute Spinach and Mushrooms
Since spinach cooks down to a fraction of what you started with, adding mushrooms helps bulk up this classic side. Use baby spinach (it's more tender than the regular variety) and squirt some lemon juice on top when it's finished cooking to make the flavors more vibrant.
Great pairings: Red-sauce dishes like
Penne alla Vodka or this take on
pappardelle Bolognese.
