Ingredients

  • 250 g fusilli (You can also use rigatoni or penne)
  • 3 large tomatoes
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 cup red pasta sauce
  • 1 pinch dried basil
  • 1 pinch dried oregano
  • 3 cups Baby Spinach
  • 12 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Method

  • Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil.
  • Add the pasta and cook until al dente, 8 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, coarsely chop the tomatoes and onion and mince the garlic.
  • Lightly oil a large, wide saucepan and set over medium heat.
  • When hot, add the onion and garlic.
  • Stir often until the onion starts to soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the pasta sauce and tomatoes.
  • Cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes start to break down, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Taste, then add the herbs, if needed.
  • If the pasta has not finished cooking, reduce the heat to low to keep the sauce warm.
  • When the pasta is cooked, drain well.
  • Stir into the sauce until evenly coated.
  • Add the spinach and stir just until wilted, 1 minute.
  • Spoon into bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan.
