-Wide Egg Noodles -Chicken Broth -Fresh Spinach -Monterey Jack Cheese -Green Onion
Dice yellow onion and slice smoked sausage into medallions.
Add the sausage and cooking oil to a large skillet and cook over medium heat until the sausage is well browned. If there’s a lot of excess fat in the skillet, drain it off before proceeding to the next step.
Add the onions to the skillet with the sausage and continue to sauté until the onions have softened. Allow the moisture from the onions to dissolve any browned bits off the bottom of the skillet.
Add diced tomatoes with green chiles (like Rotel), pasta, and chicken broth. If you’re using regular pasta (not egg noodles), increase broth.
Stir everything together until well combined. Place a lid on the skillet and allow the broth to come up to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the pasta simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally (replacing the lid each time). Make sure the broth maintains a simmer.
While the pasta is cooking, shred Monterey Jack cheese and slice green onion. When the pasta is tender and only a small amount of saucy liquid remains in the skillet, it’s time to add the spinach.
Add fresh spinach to the skillet and carefully stir until the hot pasta wilts the spinach.
Add shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top of the pasta. Place the lid on the skillet and let it heat over low for a few minutes, or just until the cheese is melted and creamy.
Top the finished pasta with the sliced green onions and serve hot!
