Absolutely delicious, simple, one-dish dinner. It's a big favorite in our family since it's got pasta, sausage, and spinach along with a creamy sauce. I get cravings for more days after we eat it :)
1. Heat the oil in a 12" nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and 1/2 tsp salt and cook until softened, about 5 mn.
2. Stir in the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes.
3. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Sprinkle the tomatoes and penne evenly over the sausage. Pour the broth and cream over the pasta. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender, about 10 minutes.
4. Stir in the spinach a handful at a time and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan and season with the salt and pepper to taste.
Italian pork sausage can be used here, but you may have to spoon off some of the fat before adding the pasta. When you are adding the spinach, it may seem like a lot at first, but it wilts down substantially. Be sure to sue at least a 12" skillet for this supper dish. This recipe also works well with ziti.
