Creamy Pasta Spinach

Healthy, yet hearty.

Serves: 4-6

Ingredients:

8 oz. pasta
8 oz. (about 2 cups) shredded cheese sharp white cheddar
1/2 cup Humboldt Creamery organic sour cream
2 cups fresh organic spinach
salt & pepper, to taste
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Directions:

Cook the pasta according to the package’s instructions (usually about 8-10 minutes), until al dente.

Reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Place the spinach leaves in the bottom of a strainer, and pour the pasta over top to drain the pasta and wilt the spinach. Return the cooked pasta and wilted spinach to the pot.

Add about 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water to the pot, and stir in the cheese until melted. Stir in the sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, until smooth and creamy. Stir in the remaining pasta water to thin, if necessary. Serve immediately.
