Ingredients
  

8 oz spaghetti

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil, drained and chopped

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Spaghetti: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and set aside.

    Prepare the Cream Sauce: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

      Add Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

        Make it Creamy: Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Season with oregano, salt, and pepper to taste.

          Incorporate Spinach: Add the chopped spinach to the sauce and cook for another 2-3 minutes until wilted.

            Combine with Pasta: Add the cooked spaghetti to the sauce, tossing to combine. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add some reserved pasta water until you reach the desired consistency.

              Serve: Plate the spaghetti and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Enjoy your delicious Spaghetti & Spinach with Sun-Dried Tomato Cream Sauce!
