This dinner is perfect for a busy weeknight. If you're quick at chopping tomatoes, you can make this whole thing in about 20 minutes. It's healthy and gives you everything you need in one bowl: carby pasta, protein-packed beans, and nutrient-rich spinach. And the sauce is so fresh and delicious, with tomatoes (you can get good ones now! summer is here!) and white wine. Bonus: it only uses a little bit of wine, leaving the rest of the bottle for you to drink with your meal.
