Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb pasta any kind
  • 1 lb ground sausage
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream or half and half
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 5 ounces fresh baby spinach
  • 1 cup grated parmesan

Method
 

  1. Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according the package directions; drain and set aside.
  2. In a large pan, cook and chop the sausage over medium heat (add the minced garlic to the pan when the sausage is close to being done). Use a paper towel to blot out the excess grease from the pan.
  3. Turn the heat to low and stir in the butter and heavy whipping cream. Simmer for 3-4 minutes or until the butter is thoroughly melted.
  4. Stir in the spinach and cook for an additional 3 minutes or until the spinach starts to wilt.
  5. Add the parmesan to the pan and stir until it's well incorporated. Stir in the cooked pasta and enjoy immediately.
