Notes

  • The spinach may add too much moisture to the pasta, if it does, carefully drain the water from the pan before adding the remaining sauce.
  • Use a large enough skillet to comfortably hold all of the ingredients without overcrowding, which allows for even cooking. A large high-sided skillet works the best.
