Spinach Pasta with chicken sausage, mushrooms, goat cheese and tomato
This is one of those meals that came together while wondering the aisles at the grocery store. The fresh spinach fettuccine caught my eye and I just went from there. It’s nothing fancy, but boy is it tasty.
Spinach Pasta with chicken sausage, mushrooms, goat cheese and tomato – by ME!1 pkg fresh spinach fettuccine
1 pkg mild chicken sausage
1 pkg presliced baby bellas
olive oil
goat cheese
cherry tomatoes
Remove chicken sausage from casing and brown meat in a skillet. Set aside on a plate with paper towels to soak up any grease.
Saute the mushrooms in the same skillet. Add a small amount of olive oil to the pan if needed.
At the same time, cooked the noodles according the the package instructions.
Toss noodles, chicken and mushrooms together in a bowl. Served with goat cheese and chopped tomatoes.

I am also a big fan of quiche but never think to make it because the crust is usually a few too many calories for lunch. Love this recipe – definitely will have to attempt this at home!

The crust def isn’t worth the calories or the effort in my book.
We love quiche, and eat it quite often! I think it’s a great “clean out the fridge” meal that is suitable for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! I will say though, I usually make mine with a crust, but NEVER a homemade crust. I just don’t have time, nor skill, for that. I love using whole wheat crusts, or the deep-dish crusts. I’m a carboholic, so the crust is a must! (if I don’t have a crust, I just make frittata.)

Crust is a must! Love it.
I guess there’s really no difference between a frittata and a crust-less quiche… just how they’re cooked? I agree though – they’re great for cleaning out the fridge.
We don’t eat many carbs in our house. I don’t want to go as far as saying gluten intolerant, but I’ve never been able to digest starches that well…
goat cheese, yes please! i’m with you on not needing a crust with quiche 🙂
