Ingredients
- 1 pound penne pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 4 roma tomatoes diced
- 3 cups baby spinach loosely packed
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon salt to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook 1 pound penne pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- While pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until softened and lightly browned.
- Add 2 tablespoons minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Stir in the cooked penne pasta, 1 1/2 cups marinara sauce, and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until heated through.
- Add the diced 4 roma tomatoes, and 3 cups baby spinach. Stir until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in 1/2 cup heavy cream and stir until fully combined and the sauce is creamy. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Serve hot, sprinkled with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
