A comforting dish of pasta enveloped in a velvety sauce made from heavy cream and tangy feta cheese, complemented by fresh spinach.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz pasta (penne or any type you prefer)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Grated Parmesan cheese (optional for serving)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
  2. Heat Up the Olive Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  3. Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the heated skillet. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Wilt the Spinach: Throw in the fresh spinach, cooking for about 2–3 minutes until it wilts down beautifully.
  5. Stir in the Cream and Feta: Reduce the heat, pour in the heavy cream, then add the crumbled feta cheese. Stir until everything is well combined.
  6. Combine with Pasta: Gently toss the cooked pasta into the skillet, mixing everything until the pasta is well coated in sauce.
  7. Season and Serve: Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm, adding grated Parmesan cheese on top if desired.
