spinach and feta pasta

Happy Monday friends!  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  I'm posting a little later than my normal morning time, because it has been a busy weekend all about my kids!  My husband was out of town for the weekend, so it was just me and my little ones.  We started Saturday with basketball pictures at one gym and then rushed over to another gym for a game with my son's team.  Later that day we celebrated a birthday with our sweet neighbors, and then from there the kids and I headed to Shiner to spend the rest of the weekend with my family.  We drove back last night and today we invited two of their friends over this morning to play and have lunch with us.  It's been lots of fun just spending time with them!
 
Here is a really easy, yummy recipe that I made last week!  It is very similar the chicken and spinach recipe that I shared here, but a lot quicker to put together.  Hope you enjoy as much as we did!
