Creamy Tomato Spinach Pasta

Creamy Tomato and Spinach Pasta is made with just a little cream cheese and Parmesan. This makes regular tomato sauce rich and creamy. If you’re not into cream cheese, you can add (¼ cup or so) and/or heavy cream to achieve a similar effect.

Although I used regular pasta for this recipe, whole wheat would be great and add more nutrients and fiber to make it a better meal. You can also switch out shape to make a shorter pasta like rotini or bowtie pasta.
