    8 ounces  penne pasta
    5 cloves  garlic
    1 package  mushrooms, sliced
    1 cup  sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and chopped
    2 tablespoons  olive oil
    4 cups  fresh spinach leaves
    1/2 cup  half & half or light heavy cream
    1/2 cup  sour cream, (regular or light, not fat free)
    1/2 - 1 cup  pasta water
      Parmesan cheese, for serving

1. Cook the pasta according to package directions in plenty of salted water, before draining set aside 1 cup of the pasta water.

2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet saute garlic, mushrooms, and tomatoes in olive oil for 3-4 minutes, add spinach and cook, stirring often until spinach is wilted. In a small bowl whisk half & half, sour cream and 1/2 cup of pasta together. Add to pan and mix well with spinach mixture. Heat through.

3. Add penne and mix well, adding more pasta water if needed to make enough sauce to coat the pasta. Serve immediately with plenty of Parmesan cheese.

You can also add chicken or shrimp, before the spinach, cook through if raw, heat thoroughly if using leftovers. Increase the amount of sauce ingredients by half.
