Steps:
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of pasta water, and set noodles aside.
- Mix together Greek yogurt and sour cream in a small bowl.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sun-dried tomatoes and garlic and saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and mix in diced tomatoes, sugar, and tomato paste. Stir until well combined. Whisk in yogurt mixture swiftly. You'll want to slowly add it in, but whisk fast to get it all incorporated well. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until sauce starts to thicken, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add baby spinach to sauce and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Add cooked fettuccine and remove skillet from heat. Toss to coat pasta with sauce. If sauce seems too thick, thin with some of the reserved pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Top with crushed red pepper to taste.

Tips:
- Use ripe, fresh tomatoes for the best flavor. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they are meaty and have fewer seeds. If you can't find Roma tomatoes, you can use cherry tomatoes or regular tomatoes.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the tomatoes. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Season the tomatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as basil, oregano, or thyme.
- Cook the tomatoes until they are softened and slightly caramelized. This will take about 15 minutes.
- Serve the fettuccine with the tomato sauce immediately. You can also top it with grated Parmesan cheese or fresh basil.

This fettuccine with tomato fillets recipe is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
