First get your pasta cooking according to packet instructions.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick pan. Add the garlic and fry on a medium heat for a few minutes to release the flavour.

Add the courgettes and mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes. As they start to soften, add the lemon juice and zest and plenty of herbs, salt and pepper.

Continue cooking for 4-5 minutes, then throw in the olives and any of their juices. Heat through, ensuring there is no surplus liquid, then remove from the heat.

Immediately stir in the spinach leaves so they wilt slightly.
