Ingredients:

8 ounces angel hair or other pasta  noodles
1 large lemon, zested and juiced (2 teaspoons zest and 1/4 cup juice) 
1 teaspoon garlic pepper (use garlic powder and black pepper if you don't
have garlic pepper)
2 Tablespoons capers - rinsed
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning blend
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
3 Tablespoons butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
*1 pound lightly wilted baby spinach

Directions:

Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente.  (*If adding spinach, place raw spinach leaves in steamer basket over boiling pasta.  Remove from heat when spinach leaves are lightly wilted - about 2 minutes.)  Drain and set aside, keeping pasta warm.

While pasta is cooking, zest and juice the lemon.  You should have about 2 teaspoons of zest and 1/4 cup juice.  Heat butter over medium heat in a small saucepan. Add lemon juice, zest and garlic pepper. Stir and cook until bubbling.  Stir in italian seasoning blend, beans, and capers and heat through (about 3 to 5 minutes). Salt and pepper as desired. Toss with pasta and serve.
