Featuring our brand-new salmon sausage, this one pot pasta dish combines pantry staples into a light, fresh and oh-so filling crowd pleaser. Our Lemon Dill Salmon Sausage works best, but you could swap out with the other flavors for an easy, weeknight dinner. You can further simplify this recipe by preparing the pasta separately as you would normally, and then stir in with the prepared sauce and sausage. Be sure to let us know if you tried it below!

Add the dry pasta and bring to a slow boil, stirring occasionally. Immediately reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook 12 - 15 minutes, or until pasta is al dente. Remove cover and increase heat to medium. Add in spinach, lemon juice and zest. Stir frequently and cook until spinach wilts, about 2 - 3 minutes.
