Fun Ingredient Fact

I sauté the spinach with garlic and chili flakes before adding to the cheese blend

There is nothing like a hearty pasta dish on a cool winter night, it oozes comfort. But come on, pasta is good any night of the week, am I right?! This is a family favorite in my household and my extended family. And anytime family loves a dish I make, call it a winner. In the summer I jar my own pasta sauce and get to use it for the year in so many dishes like this one and the vegetarian version. Suggest serving with garlicky green beans and a fresh green salad with vinaigrette dressing or kale and lime Caesar salad, all items are add on options.
