Spinach Pasta Recipe

As an Italian, you can bet I love pasta–and I have fallen very, very hard for this easy, eye-appealing meal in one!

Since discovering this simple recipe in the latest Every Day with Rachel Ray Magazine, I have made it once a week! It’s so easy and so very good.

I like to play around with this one. Switch around cheeses. Switch around pastas. Throw in a handful of spinach. Always add tomatoes.
