"This recipe feeds two people; one cup per person." So, for a night alone with my feelings, I just need to double the recipe. Got it. 👍🏻
2 people in my house and we always clear something that meant to go for 4 easy
I’m learning to love being alone. It ain’t that bad.
You are never alone....our loving God is with you always
Or just dinner for 2 days ;) always look on the bright side
He never met our husband's. I doubled.
Finally found a healthier replacement for heavy cream! Never thought about Greek Yogurt!
It works so well! Thanks for the comment :) much love
Coconut cream
*Yes!* ♥️ *inspired* to attempt this recipe.
Try raw cashew milk too. A handful of raw cashews, a cup of water and blend in a high speed blender. Makes a beautifully thick and velvety cream when heated.
Buttermilk even better low calories tons of nutrition
I was skeptical about using Greek yoghurt in replacement of cream. But let me tell you guys, it’s so worth it!! It’s creamy with a slight bit of tanginess. It is also very light so I can eat a full bowl of this without feeling sick as with regular cream pasta. This is definitely going on my meal rotation.
Glad you enjoyed it!!! Much love :)
The most delightful thing about your channel is, you have many vegetarian dishes! I love it.
Thank you so much 😊
(Posting as I keep coming back her and having to watch th video each time!)
Recipe (for 2)
- 8 button mushrooms (qrter inch thick)
- two cups spinach (roughly chopped)

Method:
- add oil on medium heat
- saute onion and garlic
- add mushrooms for 2-3 minutes

- mix pasta with everything on low heat until well combined
Made this last night post work and honestly kind of the best pasta I've ever made!! thank youu!
So happy to hear that! much love :)
Did the Greek yogurt make the pasta taste sour / bitter?
@@anonymousscorpion6434 Nope!
This is so so good, the olive oil, yogurt, garlic and onion go perfectly with each other. Loved it.
Happy to hear that! Much love :)
This dish was absolutely AMAZING!!! I was so glad to find a vegan recipe that my big, meat and potato loving, non-vegan hubby would enjoy. I've made several of Albert's recipes and everyone of them is a keeper!! And he has a most delightful and charismatic way with his presentations. I just love his enthusiasm for these simple, yet delicious Spanish meals. Thank you Albert!
I am so happy to hear that! Much love :)
Amazing how you have so many recipes with few ingredients and delicious. Not only complicated things are good
Thank you! much love :)
Chop mushroom
Chop spinach
Diced onion
And garlic
Medium high heat: olive oil
After heating the olive oil add onions and minced garlic
Start mixing until its cooked and translucent then add the mushroom and keep mixing until tender then add Paprika and mix then add spinach and mix then turn off the heat and season with salt and black pepper and mix then add room temperature yogurt and season with black pepper and mix. Then add your boiled and strained pasta and mix it all together and heat with low heat until all combined.
OH i did this! i paused the video, went down to the store to buy what i did not have on hand.I made it with you! Soooo Goood! I admit when I make this again i will adjust my spices a bit. Just tweak it a bit to suit my personal tastes. Very good! Thank you for this and the inspiration to try variations!
So happy to hear that! Thanks for the comment :) much love
I'm Italian and I can tell you that looks absolutely beautiful!
Thank you! Much love :)
Who else knows this is going to be amazing and hits the like button at the start?? 💁🏻♀️
Thanks for the comment :) Much love!
Deserves more views. This recipe is simple, delicious and much healthier than most creamy pasta recipes out there. Thank you
Glad you like it! much love :)
Finally! A healthy pasta dish without using heavy cream. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Yes! Much love :)
I had no idea that room temp yogurt would stop the curd-texture thing from happening. I had been using greek yogurt as a replacement for sour cream for years, but always had trouble with the curdling when heated. This recipe looks delicious and am going to make for lunch today!
Thank you!
Much love :)
Top tip Albert... making sure the yogurt is room temp to avoid curdling & then heat ... It’s on my menu plan.. 😉
Thanks for the comment Donna :) Much love!
So that’s why mine always use to curdle 🥲
Wow this was phenomenal! I loved the Greek yogurt because it didn't make the dish feel really heavy and fatty. The flavors were great and I am definitely going to make this again.
So happy to hear that! much love :)
Why did I just see/saw this wonderful recipe just now? Thank you for sharing😊
I made this for lunch. I did not have spinach so I just left it out. I used sour cream, I know not as healthy, but it is what I had. This turned out amazing. I truly enjoyed it. I even have enough for another lunch. It took about 20 to 25 minutes from start to finish. Thanks for sharing.
So happy to hear that! Thanks for the comment :) much love
I use canned tuna in brine, broken up, very thinly sliced mushrooms cooked in butter, so tasty, and they wrap around the penne. I thicken the brine with cornflour, season with dill, a litte garlic and lemon pepper. I stir in sour cream or greek yoghurt, to make tuna mushroom pasta, very nice hot, and good cold as a salad. I am food intolerant to onion, and can't stand parsley, so I do what works without them.
Yum, as always. You are my favorite chef. Never enjoyed my food as much as I have following your videos and I am old, lol. Thank you. Your enthusiasm is catching!
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
Ok, this is coming to my table tomorrow night. I just need to buy some spinach and I'll be adding chopped left-over rotisserie chicken meat from today right at the end. There's no need to spend hours in the kitchen to produce good meals. I love 'Spain on a fork' - lots of good ideas to see you through a busy week.
Sounds great! thanks for the comment :) much love
how was it?
To anyone trying this, I recommend adding some chili flakes, it goes well with the greek yoghurt
Yes finally meatless Monday’s! More like this please!🍷
This is one of my favorite recipes from Albert yet. Thanks so much!
So glad! Thanks for the comment :) much love
This looks incredible! I love how you used Greek Yoghurt instead of the usual cream, so make a creamy pasta base. To think that there could be a healthy substitute to cream! Can't wait to try this out. Looking forward to more videos from you Chef!
Thanks for the comment :) Much love!
Have just made this and it was delicious. I used whole meal pasta and just the best taste. Thank you
Glad you liked it!! Much love :)
Thank you Chef! This was delicious!
I turned on some Armik, opened up a bottle of wine and went to work.
I substituted the coconut cream and it was awesome!
You were right. The al dente pasta and the vegetables flavored with the smoked paprika was great.
I would add more spinach next time and double the recipe because two of us finished it.
Sounds great! Thanks for the comment :) much love
Simple yet it looks like it could be served in a high-end restaurant, Thanks Albert!
Thanks for the comment :) Much love!
It's funny growing up my mother (who is not at all Italian) would make delicious sauces to add to the pasta, but she never combined them before serving. We had to add the pasta to our plate than pour the sauce on top and mix ourselves on the plate. I never realized what a difference it made to have the pasta and sauce combined in one sauce pan before serving until the first time I tried it. Of course, now I always combine both before the final serve!
I've made this about a year ago and it stuck with me, every now and again I would dream about it and today I've made the dish again and my God, so simple yet so delicious! Thank you so much my friend, you seem like a very nice guy and I wish you the best of luck and health in this life! Bravo!
So happy to hear that! Much love :)
Didn't expect curd will go well with pasta. curd is used in different ways if you look into Indian cuisine but with pasta definitely didn't think. This recepie made my day😋
I've transitioned to a vegan diet. It's been hard finding a good recipe with the right ingredients, This is now one of my go-to recipes. Thanks!
Much love :)
I just tried this and it came out PERFECT! do follow the recipe and timings exactly, guys! This is now on my meals rotation!
Happy to hear that!! Much love :)
Looks so delicious and creamy!! And healthy of course! Can't wait to make it
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
Such a nice surprise! A creamy recipe that has hidden veggies. What is not to like :) Kid and husband approved!
Much love :)
I just made this but substituted cream for the yogurt because that’s what we had on hand. My wife loved it.
Happy to hear that! Much love :)
I just love your channel. I miss Spain, my sister lived in Madrid & Barcelona for about 10 years and I visited her often. This was in the 90s to early 2000s and it was a lot harder to find veg food back then, but it was still possible. I can't wait to visit again and see how Spanish vegan food has progressed!
Sounds great! much love :)
My Sunday pasta dish, with a some of your garlic bread and a glass of San Miguel. Looking forward to it.
Yes!!! Thanks for the comment :) much love!
love this guy's enthusiasm, also his top simple but amazing recipes
Much love :)
Just tried it! It is so delish healthy and convenient. Try adding dry cilantro and garlic powder for a more bursting flavor. Thanks for the recipe 😻 i also didn’t have spinach in hand so I substituted it with some fresh cilantro. In where I’m from in the middle east, yogurt pasta is a very popular dish, it is served with cilantro, mushrooms and sometimes ground beef on top!
Sounds great! much love :)
What i think would make this even better:
Take chicken breasts, rub them down with paprika and MAYBE a little cayenne or chilli flakes, give them a nice fry in a pan , then either shread them up and add them into the rest of the pasta, or put them in slices on top. Nothing wrong with just mushroom and pasta, buuuut i like a bit of meat with my food, and being chicken its also very healthy and fitting.
Chicken is not 'very healthy' 🤣
@@SubliminalPunker yeah it is? full of protein so good for weight loss and muscle growth, has low saturated fats, etc.
@@jj-uv4rf plant proteins are usually healthier + even if you were to use organic chicken without all the antibiotics, fed with better products, without growth hornones in a mass animal farm on really unhygienic circumstances with absolute 0 space, then they still contain animal proteins which in too high doses are proven to have unhealthy effects for your body that can lead to earlier death
Delicious!! Made for dinner and everyone loved it !!
So happy to hear that! much love :)
I love what you cook, how you cook and really all the fresh simple healthy recipes you share! Packed with lots of flavor of course 😃 Thank you so much ❤️
Thanks for the comment Rosemary :) Much love!
I thought its gonna be full of cheese and cream but , you sir, used greek yogurt and surprised me! Definitely gonna try this in my next meal.
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
*I still may sprinkle some grated parm on this...* 😃 ♥️
@@readingsbycara I did that too lol. It was great btw!
Wow Sir! This really is the most amazing recipe of pasta I have ever seen. I had never imagined that something like pasta can also be made in such a healthy way! I discover something new each time I watch your videos. You're a truly great chef and I have learned a lot ever since I found your channel. I promise I'll forever remain a subscriber. I have shared this recipe in my WhatsApp groups too. Also, like number 74 was me 😊😊
Saludos y amor para ti ( sorry again if my Spanish is wrong 😅)
Your Spanish is amazing! Thanks for the comment :) much love!
Fair play this looks pretty good ,it’s a good effort making healthy food taste good
Thank you! Much love :)
This dish is great! I made it for my sister and she said the Greek yogurt tastes so much better than a cheese sauce
So happy to hear that! much love :)
I made this tonight with almond yogurt, it was good. I suggest adding more seasonings and white dry wine! It adds so much to the flavor
What seasonings did you add?
The best dishes are usually the most simple, nothing complicated, just big flavours, what more could you want.
Totally agree! much love :)
Your food channel has just become my favourite.
More vegan recipes please, you could always do the main recipe and then add alternatives for vegans if possible
Thanks for the amazing videos. 👍👍
Much love :)
This recipe looks so good and easy.
BTW your voice is very soothing and relaxing.
Much love :)
Love to use yogurt in recipes instead of cream, a winner! Thanks Albert! Love your channel! And love Spain too💕💕💕
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
Your channel has a ton of Spanish vegetarian recipes. Kudos!
Much love :)
That is a killer dish Albert. Love the addition of mushrooms.
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
@@SpainonaFork k
Will be added to the menu, tomorrow’s lunch 😋🥳
Sounds great! Thanks for the comment :) Much love
I was looking for a healthy option for Pasta and you where the only one who dosent use fatty ingridients so thats why i tryed your recepie and supriseingly it taste so good, wow. Definetly a like from me.
Happy to hear that! Much love :)
I have never thought of using Paprika in a Pasta dish but can't wait to try this recipe. I eat mainly vegetarian so the Paprika flavour will really add to it.
It's so good! Thanks for the comment :) Much love
I tried it, but did a mistake with the yogurt, its fine when you add it in room temp but if you overcook it with the pasta even then it starts curdling, so I would suggest you follow the time as in the video, other than that its so good and simple, if people want to avoid the spinach smell you can sprinkle some thyme or oregano in which I did😅
Much love :)
Greek yogurt was a surprise ingredient that makes perfect sense. Great idea. Will definitely try.
Much love :)
Made it today and loved it! I didn’t have yogurt so I substituted cream of mushroom soup 👍also I used baby Bella mushrooms.
Sounds great! Much love :)
I can`t wait to try this one! Finally cooking is exciting!
Much love :)
I make this dish all of the time. I'd have cooked the mushrooms first until golden brown and then add the onions and garlic. This way the mushrooms have a great nutty flavor and the garlic mixes with them as well
Awesome healthy and mouthwatering pasta!
Thank you! Much love :)
Thank you for sharing your recipes! I’be had this for lunch and dinner today! Taste was amazing! I am currently pregnant and lots of complications, its challenging to find recipes that are healthy and tasteful at the same time. Next time i’ll try to add shrimp or salmon.
So happy to hear that! much love :)
i finally got around to making it, but i did it just a LITTLE bit different. One of the tweaks I did was to sqweez a touch of lemon. But that is just me, it's a personal preference. Overall it was perfect! I m very happy i found this channel, learned a lot and i could cook very tasty and healthy meals for my family ! Thank you and never stop uploading ! PS the pepper on the yogurt was a great touch. I wonder what else you can add to the yogurt...?
So happy to hear that! Much love :)
Oh yes, This is an impeccable pasta dish! Incredibly yummy and will definitely be loved by my kids!
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
Looks super delicious! For a vegan alternative I use hummus in place of the yogurt/creme.
I used cashews and hummus
Sounds great! Much love :)
This is one of your best recipes, sir. When "veganized" using some soy greek-style yougurt, it is even possible to store this in a freezer for quite long time, I tried that. Really great tasting multi-purpose recipe. Also, replacing the mushrooms with torn-up oyster mushrooms (w/ available) is something to consider, it brings a more of that "bite" to the plate. Anyway, great work, as always sir. Greetings from southern Comunidad de Valencia.
Sounds great! Much love :)
Very beautiful, give your hands. I will follow you from Egypt and do beautiful dishes. 🌹👍
Thank you so much 😊 much love to Egypt from Spain!
Just made this; put on some music and poured a glass of wine. Only had a plain yoghurt in the fridge, it di separate but the taste was okay. Thanks for a new recipe.
Much love :)
This was the first recipe i tried from spain on a fork and everyone in my family loved it! Its the first time we have had spanish food so i am looking forward to trying out many more recipes
So happy to hear that! much love :)
@@SpainonaFork what can I substitute the yogurt for I don’t eat dairy
@@charityshxt3878 vegan yoghurt, as he suggested in the video
First potatoes, now pasta--I've seen so many recipes with milk and cream and lots of butter and so on, and never realized or saw mentioned that one could swap it out with yogurt in these particular kinds of dishes, somehow. The cream, etc, makes me feel sick, so I don't try out the creamy ___ dishes (didn't grow up eating them to begin with, but I've had to avoid them for a while now). Greek yogurt *doesn't* have that effect, though, depending on the type--I'm thinking I'll try out some of these recipes of yours the next time I buy yogurt. A lot of what you have on your channel seems to be pretty in line with the sort of cooking I like to do, actually, or very close to it, and with ingredients I already keep around. It's very refreshing! Thank you so much for sharing all these recipes, especially the yogurt ones I mentioned. Looking forward to watching more.
By the way--will 3% non-Greek yogurt also work? I know it's runnier--would it just need a different amount, or something? Or just result in a slightly different final consistency?
I would add a bit more yogurt at 3%, but even then, it won´t be as creamy, but still great :) much love
This I have to try. Never used a pasta dish using yogurt. Use to using cheeses. I have to cut out cheeses 😢
I have been using plain Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream for about 5 years but never realized you could use it to substitute for heavy cream too! Thank you for sharing these recipes with us, I cannot wait to try them all. The only problem I have is choosing which one to start with!! Be Safe and Blessings!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Hope you enjoy! Thank you! Much love :)
just made this but used almond greek yogurt and this is the best pasta I have ever had!! so good. also used brown rice penne to make it GF :)
Sounds great! Much love :)
I really like your tone of voice. This pasta looks delicious
Thank you 😋
I love the recipe. I will try this soon. 🤗🥰❤️
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
I've been made it and it's perfect thanks for this recipe❤
Happy to hear that! Much love :)
This is the first time I ever made pasta. And it turned out AMAZING because of this recipe. Everything was perfect and my family loved it!! The Greek yogurt was a perfect substitute to cream. Thanks for sharing this with us!! 💕💕💕
So happy to hear that! Much love :)
I put too much yogurt and it turned but still taste good. I hope its going to be fine. Ill try again for sure. Thx
This is excellent. I added capers.
Looks like I just found what to have for dinner tonight. Que Rico!
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
This looks amazing! I’m
Heading to Publix today to try it!
Sounds great! Much love :)
I am definitely going to try this. You have a lovely soothing voice 👍😘
Much love :)
OH MAN!! This looks delightful! I know what I'm making Friday night! ;) *SHARED*
Thanks for the comment Terri :) much love!
Surprised me too with Greek yogurt....Looks great. Gonna try it. Thank you very much for the recipe and healthier food and thank you very much for the video in English
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
That looks so good I’ve just subscribed
Thank you 😋
I’m not gon do it girl I was just thinking about it.
I DID IT!
Was it good? I'm so hesitant to try new food...I'm childish lol
how was it?
Thank you for the great recipe. It is simple and super tasty. Thanks for the great culinary inspiration.
Much love :)
Just wondering if there is any tinge of sourness at all from the greek yougurt when you eat the final dish?
I was thinking the same thing. I assume there is since not too many seasonings in the dish.
A slight bit, it's not as sweet as when using cream. Nonetheless it fit well with the rest of the ingredients and didn't bother in any way :)
@@fatimazahid849 ah alright thank you for the reply!
It does taste a bit like yoghurt but I use whole meal pasta and add some prawns. It gives 40g of protein in less than 350 cals plus the health benefits of spinach. Honestly its the healthiest pasta ever!
@@vaishnavipathak5790 hmm i wanna create this but im afraid of the yoghurty taste? can you really taste the yoghurt or does it taste nice like cream a lil?
Thank you so very much for all your ideas, you’re great and made my life easier and healthier 😘🙏🍀🍀🍀
Happy to help! much love :)
Thanks for providing vegan options!
It’s 10:30 pm and I’m craving this so bad I really wanna make it but I’ll have to wait till tomorrow AGHG IM SO HUNGRY
I thought the same thing, so many recipes are made with sour cream, cream cheese and/or heavy cream all very bad for arteries and heart. Using Greek yogurt is a great idea, I never thought of it. I'm definitely going to try this recipe. You have such delicious looking recipes, I'm going to try a bean recipe tomorrow, so healthy and economical so many meatless dishes.
Thank you! Much love :)
this is exactly the video i was looking for. great job !
Much love :)
Made theese yesterday, absolutely delicious! Thanks :)
Much love :)
This is definitely going into my regular rotation. I love cream sauces but never considered substituting Greek yogurt! Thank you!!
Thanks for the comment :) much love!
Just subscribed to your channel! Searching for vegetarian pasta and I am sooo gonna try this recipe tonight! ❣️💕💓💗❤️💜🥬 🍄
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
I tried this one just now... And i am surprised! What a great content... Please make more of healthier pasta that is easy to make....!
Will do! much love :)
