Spaghetti & Spinach with Sun-Dried Tomato Cream Sauce

INGREDIENTS:

12 oz spaghetti
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
2 cups fresh spinach
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

Cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, cooking until spinach is wilted.
Pour in heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and sauce is smooth.
Toss the cooked spaghetti in the sauce, seasoning with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.
Serve hot, garnished with additional Parmesan if desired. Enjoy the rich and creamy texture contrasted with the tangy flavor of sun-dried tomatoes and fresh, earthy spinach.
