(original recipe from allrecipes.com)
1 box (14.5oz) Penne pasta
1 tsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 can (15oz) chicken broth
1- 2 tsp fresh basil
1 can (14.5oz) diced tomatoes
1 package (10oz) frozen chopped spinach
2 patties Morning Star Sausage, chopped finely
Parmesan cheese
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. In a large skillet, heat oil. Add onion and cook till tender. Add garlic to skillet towards the end of cooking the onion. Add sausage, broth, basil and tomatoes. Cook over medium heat till slightly reduce. Add al dente pasta and chopped spinach to skillet. Cover skillet and simmer on reduced heat until spinach is tender.
Sprinkle with cheese when serving.
MODIFICATIONS
One modification that I have done is to add a little milk instead of the second can of chicken broth. I will mix it with about a tsp of cornstarch and add about 1 1/2 - 2 C. This makes it creamier. You really have to gauge the liquid amounts for yourself each time you cook it because it can vary a little depending on how done the pasta is and the weather :)
