- 8 oz spaghetti

- 1/2 teaspoon salt  

- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until

fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts

and combines with the garlic.

topping with grated Parmesan cheese.

Tips:  

- For a vegetarian twist, add cherry tomatoes or

mushrooms to the skillet for extra flavor and nutrition.  

- Substitute spinach with kale or arugula if you want a

heartier green.  

- Enhance the dish by squeezing fresh lemon juice over it

before serving for a bright, citrusy kick.
