Spicy Tuscan Pasta (healthy and SO good)



If we could eat this everyday of the week in this house we probably would. It is seriously that good. We've been on a bit of a health kick lately and spinach has been a constant on my grocery list. The challenge is finding ways to incorporate it into meals that actually taste good. This one is seriously a winner. It is the perfect blend of spice and flavor, and you only need one pan!

What you need:
Half a box of bow tie pasta
14 oz package of turkey sausage sliced in half inch pieces
Half onion diced
One can of Rotel with green chilies (don't drain)
Tablespoon olive oil
2 cups chicken broth
1.5 cups Monterrey Jack cheese
Two Tablespoons minced garlic
Small bag of spinach 
Salt and Pepper to taste

In a large skillet heat the olive oil. Add in the sausage until browned. Add in the chopped onion and the garlic until soft. Add the broth and Rotel, uncooked pasta and salt and pepper. Make sure the pasta is mostly submerged and cover. Heat on medium heat stirring occasionally until pasta is cooked. Uncover and add spinach slowly while stirring until the whole bag is incorporated. top with the cheese and let melt. Serve!

Charlie was reading this over my should and said "OH YEAH! PUT THAT RECIPE IN THERE! ITS A WIN!"
