Instructions
- Add penne to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
- Drain and return penne to the same pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over high heat.
- Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then sausage and peppers. Cook, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains and peppers are tender-crisp, 3-4 min.**
- Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat to medium-high.
- Add Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend to the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 1 min.
- Add cream cheese and 1/2 cup (1 cup) water.
- Cook, stirring often, until cheese is melted and sauce has thickened slightly, 1-2 min.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop or tear spinach.
- Add roasted pepper pesto, garlic puree, spinach and sausage mixture to the pot with penne. Stir, until spinach wilts and pesto is combined into sauce, 1-2 min.
- Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt and pepper.
- Divide pasta between bowls.
- Sprinkle feta over top.
If you've opted for double sausage, cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the regular portion of sausage. Work in batches, if necessary.
