    I make something similar- I do NOT cook the spinach and use it as a base on the bottom of a large serving dish, putting the pasta and shrimp (chicken, mushrooms, many other things work great also), mixture on top. The fresk spinach is GREAT with the hot pasta & toppings! - 5/31/07

    It's tasty and easy to make. There was too much liquid once the dish was done so I added some corn starch to thicken it. I also added a bit of cayenne pepper to give it some bite. In the future I'll try holding back on the amount of olive juice I add to the pan. - 9/26/12

    Easy, healthy, and tasty! However, it did take me a bit longer to make than the estimated time said. Just an FYI. - 9/26/11
