Angel Hair With Tomatoes, Spinach & Pine Nuts image

I made this up because I had lots of extra spinach and tomatoes out in the garden. I'm so glad I did, because I'd order this in a restaurant! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I'm not a big fan of pine nuts, so I substituted walnuts instead. The walnuts added a nice crunchy texture to the dish.

I added some grilled chicken to this dish and it was amazing! The chicken added a nice protein boost and made the dish even more satisfying.
