Creamy Marinara w/ Penne

This recipe is quick, easy and a little naughty for during the week, but certainly not as naughty as alfredo or vodka sauce from your favorite Italian joint.  Live Wellthy.  

One box of gluten-free penne 

2 cloves of garlic

4 tablespoons olive oil

4 large tomatoes

2/3 cup of Garbaldi ricotta

1 quart mushrooms

4 cups of  baby spinach

Salt and pepper to taste

Red pepper flakes if spice is nice

This is not complicated. First sauté the garlic in the olive oil then add the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.

Done

Extra sautéed spinach on the side is optional.

Eat, enjoy and thank me later
