We have a week left to go in school before we get two whole weeks together. I am already making plans to play board games, bake some festive treats, watch some holiday movies and put together our annual holiday puzzle. With the weather getting colder and colder, dinner is bringing warmth and comfort. Choosing meals in the winter is a bit different than in the spring or summer and many of my favorite dishes include noodles.
Last week I shared my Spicy Noodles with Mushrooms and Zucchini recipe that has become a family favorite! This week I wanted to go a familiar route. My mom would make these amazing homemade noodles with mushrooms and spinach and I thought I would try and pay homage to it with another amazing recipe featuring Reames Homestyle Egg Noodles.
I love this recipe because many of these ingredients are familiar and favorites of mine. Spinach is a tough sell at my house at times so when I have the chance to throw it in a pasta, I take it. My kids love noodles, so selling them spinach wasn’t has difficult this time around.

This is a very mild flavored dish that will be a hit with all members of your family. While this recipe doesn’t contain meat, I feel like some shredded chicken would work great in it.
You can find Reames Frozen Noodles at your local grocery store in the frozen aisle. There are so many different ways you can prepare these noodles from an Asian flair to a classic florentine, the possibilities are endless. I already have plans to make a leftover turkey noodle soup with holiday leftovers!
Happy Holidays!
