Adding Spinach to Pasta |
|
|
I was preparing a fairly plain boxed pasta side dish for last night's dinner when I remembered a small amount of leftover steamed spinach in the refrigerator. I squeezed it as dry as I could, chopped it very finely and after the pasta dish was done cooking, I added it to the dish. The heat from the prepared pasta was more than sufficient to heat the spinach and after stirring it in thoroughly, I was struck by what a visually appealing dish it had become.
A very small amount of grated cheese was used as a topper. It was delicious! The taste of the spinach did not overwhelm the pasta sauce and resulted in a more substantial side dish as well as taking care of a leftover. I will definitely be doing this one again.

RE: Adding Spinach to Pasta
This sounds wonderful! So simple -- but yet so good. We love spinach at our house. The problem is that there is usually no leftovers. I'll just have to make extra and then hide it in the refrigator somehow.
