I love to cook for my kids. I took this recipe off the internet and added it to my rolodex. It’s easy to make, fantastic to eat and most importantly my children love it. Try it the next time you cook dinner and shine like a rock star.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1/3 container Tofutti "Better Than Cream Cheese"
- 1 cup water
- 1 vegetable stock cube
- A small chopped garlic
- A little chopped parsley (preferably fresh, but your Dad, so dry will do)
- 2 large mushrooms, chopped
- Olive oil
- 1 "head" of fresh spinach leaves (I rinse it more than once, but look for the “rinsed” spinach)
- Pasta (I always go with spaghetti)
DIRECTIONS
Chop onion, mushroom, garlic, parsley and sauté in a little olive oil until onions are somewhat translucent (the original recipe calls for a little garlic salt, but my kids tend to not like too much garlic so I leave it out). Add stock cube and cup of water. Add the Tofutti cream cheese. Let simmer till kind of thick (10 minutes maybe). Boil the spinach for about 3 minutes. Dump everything on top of the strained past and mix.
Godere di buona salute!
