Description

This dish is an absolute classic when you need something quick and still want it to be delicious! The combination of juicy scampi, fresh spinach and a creamy tomato sauce is simply unbeatable. I like to make this pasta when I don't have much time, but still want to put something special on the table. The pesto provides an extra portion of flavor and the Parmesan rounds everything off perfectly. Ideal for a quick lunch or a cozy dinner for two. If you like it a little spicier, you can add an extra chili. A really great dish that always succeeds!
