Cooking Steps
- Before starting, to a large pot, add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high. Wash and dry all produce.
- Add penne to the boiling water. Cook uncovered for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
- Drain and return penne to the same pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over high.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then sausage and peppers. Cook for 3-4 min, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains and peppers are tender-crisp.**
- Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat to medium-high.
- To the pan, add Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend. Cook for 1 min, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Add cream cheese and 1/2 cup (1 cup) water.
- Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until cheese is melted and sauce has thickened slightly.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop or tear spinach.
- Add roasted pepper pesto, garlic puree, spinach and sausage mixture to the pot with penne. Stir for 1-2 min, until spinach wilts and pesto is combined into sauce.
- Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt and pepper.
- Divide pasta between bowls.
- Sprinkle feta over top.
