Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente; drain.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add onion and garlic, and cook until golden brown. Mix in tomatoes, mushrooms, and spinach. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook 2 minutes more, until tomatoes are heated through and spinach is wilted.

I guess it's all healythy but try to avoid too much cheese, butter and other cholesterol-rich foods. These things tend to clog your arteries if taken too much.
This is fantastic. Discovered it when I was in Menorca on a windsurfing holiday. Ate it for a wekk every lunch time.

The secret of this dish is not to cook either the prawns or the mussels too much and to use a very good olive oil. The sauce is more or less olive oil and it is truly delicious. I guarantee it.
