Stop! Put down that jar of tomato sauce! Put away the shredded cheese! Fill your bowl with this healthy and flavorful pasta with roasted garlic, sun dried tomatoes, prosciutto and spinach. This is not your typical pasta dish…it’s light, but totally screams comfort food!
Seriously, I could eat the entire recipe of this pasta. {Okay, maybe I really did…but you can’t prove it!} It’s my homemade version of what I order at my favorite Italian restaurant. As much as I love an amazing tomato sauce, sometimes it just doesn’t cut it. In under 20 minutes, you can have a bowl of this scrumptious pasta. It’s a little sweet from the roasted garlic and sun dried tomatoes and it’s a little salty from all that crispy prosciutto.
It’s National Pasta Month and I thought it would be fun to partner with one of my favorite pasta brands, Dreamfields. Did you know that a one-cup cooked serving of Dreamfields pasta (2 oz. dry) provides 5 grams of fiber and 7 grams of protein! So with all that spinach and pasta you will be chowing down on tons of fiber…but I promise you won’t even notice. {wink wink} Make sure you check out Dreamfileds online to find more great info and some amazing recipes!

You could really substitute any shaped pasta here, but I just love having everything all about the same size…it makes it easier for eating. I bet you are wondering what the kids thought of this more grown up pasta dish. Well….they actually liked it! I think it was the macaroni noodles that won them over. I’m sneaky like that…plus I also know that this pasta as all that extra fiber, so if the do push that wonderful green spinach aside I know they are still filling up with a healthy pasta.
