Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions.
• While the pasta is boiling, make the spinach pesto: In a food processor (or a blender in a pinch), pulse the spinach, garlic, walnuts, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. Don't pulse it to a paste - leave it a little chunky - some texture is good.

CREAMY MUSHROOM & SPINACH PASTA

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat and fry the onion and mushrooms for 10 mins, or until softened and browned slightly. Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions.
• Add the garlic to the pan with the mushrooms and cook for 2 mins more. Tip in the crème fraîche and parmesan, stir to combine, then add the baby spinach. Set aside.
• Remove the pasta from the heat and drain, reserving 25ml of the water. Toss the pasta in the creamy mushroom sauce, put back on the heat and cook over a low heat until the spinach wilts, about 5 mins. Pour in enough of the reserved water to loosen slightly. Season with black pepper and finish with a sprinkle of chilli flakes, if you like.
