Tuscan Sausage Pasta Heaven
First up, let’s get your eyes feasting on what you’re about to create.
Now that we’ve got the eye candy out of the way, let’s rustle up the ingredients to transform your kitchen into a Tuscan trattoria.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 12 oz pasta (your choice, but penne or rigatoni are pasta-tively perfect!)
- 1 lb Italian sausage (spicy or sweet, we’re not judging!)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (for that aromatic goodness)
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes (the juicier, the better)
- 1 cup heavy cream (because, why not?)
- 1 cup spinach (for that healthy green touch)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (to sprinkle on the love)
- Salt and pepper, to taste (because seasoning is key, folks!)
- Grated Parmesan cheese (for the grand finale)
Instructions to Impress:
- Boil a big pot of water like it’s your morning cup of coffee, and throw in your pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, unleash the Italian sausage. Break it up with a spatula as it cooks until browned and delicious.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for about a minute until fragrant, but don’t let it burn – we want passion, not charcoal!
- Pour in those luscious diced tomatoes, followed by the heavy cream and the Italian seasoning. Stir it all together, and let that mixture bubble with excitement for about 5-7 minutes.
- Once you’ve reached the creamy goodness you crave, toss in the spinach and let it wilt like it’s at a yoga retreat.
- Finally, combine the cooked pasta with the sauce, stirring well to ensure each noodle is coated in this dream of flavors. Season with salt and pepper to your heart’s desire.
- Serve hot, topped generously with grated Parmesan cheese, and watch as your friends and family swoon over your culinary masterpiece!
