Here is a quick pasta dish to whip up on a hectic weekday night. The sauce can be prepared in the the time it takes for the pasta to cook, check it out:

cheese or vice versa. Fortunately since I used very little creme fraiche on the black bean soup I made last week I decided to substitute it in for the cream cheese-definitely a tasty upgrade. The only other change I made was in the pasta- I didn’t have any penne on hand so I used some gemelli which has a nice bite to it when cooked al dente. If you like things more acidic add either some lemon zest to the sauce or a squeeze of juice to your individual bowl. I also like the fact that this recipe incorporates pureed spinach as well as whole to give it a balance of texture and color.
