Here, we've used the remaining shiitake mushrooms from Mini Red Pepper-Mushroom Pizza. They add richness to this pasta dish, but any other type of mushrooms will work, too.
== Ingredients ==
* Cooking spray
* 1/2 cup thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps
* 1 tablespoon chopped shallots
* 1 garlic clove, minced
* 1 1/2 cups torn spinach
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
* 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
* 1/2 cup fat-free less-sodium chicken broth
* 2 tablespoons sliced ripe olives
* 1 1/2 cups hot cooked pasta (about 3/4 cup uncooked tube-shaped pasta)
* 1 1/2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
* 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
* Dash of salt
* 1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated Asiago cheese
== Directions ==
# Heat a small nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat,
# Add mushrooms, shallots, and garlic, and sauté 2 minutes or until mushrooms are tender.
# Stir in spinach, basil, and vinegar, and cook 1 minute or until spinach wilts, stirring frequently.
# Add broth and olives; cook 15 seconds.
# Combine mushroom mixture, pasta, oil, pepper, and salt, tossing gently to coat.
# Spoon pasta mixture onto a plate; top with cheese.
