A Super Fast, Super Healthy and Super Delicious Pasta

Spinach and Kale are two super foodds that you should really be getting into you and your family as much as possible.  This is one of the easiest dishes to cook, its cheap, it can be made in bulk and its so good for you that i tell my kids that if they concentrate they'll feel their bodies getting stronger with every mouthful. 

I use a handheld mxer for this but you can transfer into a regular blending mixer if you like just wait for it to cool down a bit ok.
