Instructions: 1. Remove outer casings from sausage, and cut into small pieces about an inch long.

2. Place olive oil in a non-stick skillet and saute sausage until brown.

Add onions, garlic, peppers, herbs, red wine, salt and pepper, and cook until the onions and garlic are clear.

(While you are doing this, cook your pasta)

3. Add 1 cup of the pasta water, stir and add the fresh spinach leaves to the pan. Cover and steam the spinach for about 5 minutes or so, or until done.

4. Drain the penne, and place in a serving dish, and pour the sauce on top.

Serve with grated parmesan cheese.

(The next night, we took the leftovers and added mozzarella cheese and baked it for half an hour, and ate it again. Too good for words!)
