Ingredients
- 1 box Jovial Foods gluten free Tagliatelle or pasta of choice
- 1 lb Italian Sausage casings removed
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 fennel bulb coarsely chopped, fronds removed
- 2 cups raw baby spinach
- 8 oz mushrooms cremini or white
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ½ cup full-fat coconut milk original Nutpods, or half & half (not dairy free)
- ½ tsp sea salt more or less to taste
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook pasta according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add fennel, sausage, garlic and mushrooms. Saute until the sausage is browned and cooked through and the fennel and mushrooms have softened, approximately 7-8 minutes. Add in chicken broth, stir, and let it simmer until the pasta is done.
- Add in spinach and stir 1-2 minutes until wilted. Stir in the coconut milk. Add in drained pasta and toss to combine.
- Serve with parsley if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
Variations: Feel free to use ground turkey sausage or chicken sausage if you prefer. Regular pasta can be used if you do not need to be gluten free. Half and half can be used instead of coconut milk if you do not need to be dairy free. Omit mushrooms if you don't like them.
Storage: Store leftover sausage fennel pasta in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. The pasta will not get hard - gluten free pasta typically stores well in any type of sauce.
Freezing: I do not recommend freezing this recipe, as it may change the texture of the pasta.
