This is a really great and simple recipe that has become one of our "regulars." I used it for a food demo in one of our cooking classes and the participants were amazed by the fact that they couldn't taste the spinach. We added an entire bag of fresh spinach and it cooked down beautifully! Some italian seasoning is a good addition.

We made a couple of changes; left out tomatoes, added chopped onion, used collards, and added a few pieces of cooked bacon. Have also tried it with kielbasa or a 1/2 lb of Italian sausage. This is one of our favorites!

I guess I'm the lone voice of dissent, but I just didn't like this recipe. I contemplated making it for one of my classes, and tested it out before class. Nope. Not for me. Maybe with fresh spinach if I try again.

This recipe has certainly been a hit with middle school students and adults. I often use Swiss chard instead of spinach to introduce a mostly unfamiliar vegetable. Students have fun guessing the name of the Swiss chard leaf.

This recipe is fast, easy, and delicious! I have made it with middle school kids and with adults, and everyone loves it. I always use wholegrain pasta and it tastes great. Sometimes I add fresh basil, which makes it even tastier! It can be served as a main dish (vegetarian!) or as a hearty side dish.
