Perfect for lunch or dinner and less than 30 minutes to make. You can also swap meats or veggies but this one is excellent. Try it out and let me know what you think.

Ingredients: (serves 4)
- 3/4 pound whole wheat Linguine
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1 cup sausage, diced
- 1 jalapeno diced (seeds removed)
- 3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
- olive oil
- crushed red pepper flakes
- garlic powder
- salt
- pepper


To Make:

Boil water for the pasta and cook according to package directions. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Remember to salt the water.

In the meantime, in a large skillet, saute the onions, garlic, sausage and jalapeno pepper in olive oil until tender on medium heat. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Add the spinach once the pasta is almost ready. Season liberally with salt, pepper, crushed red pepper and garlic powder. Once the pasta is ready, do not drain, spoon directly into the mixture of veggies. Begin mixing together. Add in 1/4 cup extra olive oil. Slowly add in the Parmesan cheese and mix together. Spoon 2 tables spoons of the remaining pasta water into the mix and let cook for 1 minute.

Serve immediately and top with extra Parmesan and red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
