This is so simple and delicious! I love pasta and spinach together. Five stars!!
Totally agree! This recipe is a lifesaver for busy weeknights. So quick and yummy! 😊
Best pasta recipe I’ve tried! I added more garlic coz I love it. 😍
Ew, my pasta turned mushy 🤢. Maybe I cooked it too long? Any tips?
Yum! Who knew sun-dried tomatoes could make such a difference? I’ll make it again!
I totally agree! Sun-dried tomatoes add such a unique flavor. It’s one of my favorite pasta dishes now!
Seems simple enough, but can I use fresh tomatoes instead of sun-dried? Just curious!
I made this last night and my kids loved it! So easy and quick to make!
It’s okay, but I thought there would be more flavor. I added some red pepper flakes.
I totally get what you mean! It could use a bit more spice. Maybe try Italian seasoning next time?
This pasta dish is amazing! The flavors blend so well together. Definitely a keeper!
Not sure about the spinach and tomatoes, sounds a bit weird to me. But people seem to like it?
