| Dinner for two! |
This dish was absolutely perfect because it combined all of our favorite things: Tomatoes, Spinach, Pasta, and Cheese. It's really that simple, and I'm sure you already have all the ingredients in your cabinet! The most time consuming part of this recipe is getting your water to boil for the pasta. So get that pot on the stove and have dinner on the table in 30 minutes! Let's get started!
First dice up your garlic and onions as fine or as rough as you'd like, then sautee them in a large skillet with olive oil.
Then add your tomato paste and a little bit of water so you don't burn the paste.
Once everything has simmered for a minute or two, add in your can of diced tomatoes, cream cheese, and spices. I like to use the tomatoes that already have oregano and basil in them (it was a happy accident). Whisk the mixture on medium heat until the cream cheese has melted entirely.
Then add in your parmesan cheese. Again, whisking until it's thoroughly combined. Then add in your spinach. Yours truly and S like a LOT of spinach, so feel free to tone it down when you make this. And with that, you're just moments away from creamy, tomato-y, spinach-y goodness!
Add in your pasta, mix it to coat in the sauce, and voila! Dinner is complete!
Yum and Yummier! This dish is wonderful and so quick and easy to prepare with such simple ingredients, there's no reason not to make this tonight! I hope you guys liked this one and I hope you have a wonderful weekend. See you next week!
