Directions:

How to:

  • Boil a pot of salted water for the pasta. Cook according to the package instructions to just shy of al dente (a few minutes less than the package suggests). Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water and drain the pasta.
  • In a large fry pan (skillet) over medium-high heat, melt together the butter and olive oil. Add the sausage, onions, and mushrooms. Cook until the sausage is browned, about 6 minutes, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add the heavy cream. Lower the heat to medium. Stir and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the drained tomatoes, spinach, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the spinach wilts. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Add the cooked pasta, Parmesan cheese, and pasta water to the skillet. Stir and simmer for a few minutes, until the pasta has thickened.
  • Serve with additional grated parmesan.
