Tomato & Spinach Pasta Toss

I went home for fall break and it was wonderful. Well, besides losing my phone in Atlanta. But I got to have a kitchen for a few days which was awesome. Here's a quick and easy pasta recipe!


What you'll need:
2 cups penne pasta (uncooked)
1 cup water
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes (undrained)
9 ounces baby spinach
1 cup shredded Italian Three-Cheese Blend 

1. Empty diced tomatoes, water, and pasta into a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir occasionally so the pasta doesn't stick to the pan. 


2. Cover and let it simmer on medium-low heat until pasta is tender (around 10 minutes). Keep stirring occasionally. When pasta is tender, add half of the spinach and simmer until spinach is just wilted.


3. Add other half of spinach and stir.


4. Serve topped with cheese!
