1. Bring a large pan of water to the boil, then cook the spaghetti according to pack instructions.
2. Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a large frying pan for 5 mins, until starting to crisp. Tip in the mushrooms, then fry for 3 mins until cooked. Drain the pasta and tip into the frying pan along with the spinach and cheese. Toss everything together over a low heat until the spinach has wilted and the cheese melted.

Know how

Don't worry about peeling the outer skin on mushrooms as this holds much of the flavour and nutrients, but do brush away any dirt and treat them with care, as they will bruise easily. Before refrigerating remove any plastic packaging and cover with kitchen roll or store in a paper bag and use within a few days.

'Great dish - all in one bowl and indulgently rich with a creamy taste of cheese and mushrooms. It's also so great that this recipe can be halved or doubled.'

  I used dried wild mushrooms soaked and rejuvinated first and I added a couple table spoons of cream once cheese had melted and folded in at last minute to make it more saucey

  This is delicious and extremely quick. I added 50ml per person of creme fraiche to add a little extra moistness - so not too many extra calories.
