We're all about narrowing the gulf between you and a delicious homemade dinner, and we've outdone ourselves with this pasta. There's no giant pot of boiling water to deal with and no colander to dig out of your cupboard. One pan and a trusty wooden spoon are all you need to put this dinner on the table. Meaty cremini mushrooms in a creamy mixture of tangy sun-dried tomatoes and fresh spinach make for a meal that's all comfort and no hassle. Tip: This recipe has a shallot, which sometimes is rough to mince. Easiest way to mince shallot? Make thin slices lengthwise, then slices across, resulting in minced shallot.
