Ingredients:

Serving

12 oz fettuccine
2 tsp olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 cups fresh spinach, finely chopped (or 1 cup frozen, drained )
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup fresh tomato, diced, drained
3/4 cup ricotta cheese , pureed until smooth ( part-skim or low-fat)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 pinch nutmeg (optional)

Directions:

Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Remove 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking liquid and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute. Add the spinach and salt. Cook until the spinach is wilted.
Add the tomatoes, cook until heated through.
Add the cooked fettuccine and 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking liquid. Add the ricotta. Toss and cook until just heated through, adding more pasta liquid as necessary to make a creamy sauce. Add the Parmesan and nutmeg. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve immediately.
