Scale
- 1 pound Protein Rotini Pasta (or Penne), I used Barilla Protein Pasta
- 12 ounces Pork Sausage
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 Red Onion, sliced thinly
- 5 cups Spinach
- 1 can (15-oz) Garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
Instructions
- Bring pot of salted water to a boil. Add in pasta and cook until al dente, or to taste. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Drain the remaining water and rinse. Set aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, cook sausage in the saute pan, breaking apart into chunks. Cook until lightly browned.
- Add in the olive oil, and add in the sliced red onion. Cook until the onion is just softened. Add in the spinach, and wilt.
- Add in the drained and rinsed garbanzo beans to the mixture and toss to combine. Add in salt and pepper to taste if you would like.
- Toss in the drained pasta. Add additional olive oil if desired.
