I love the idea of spinach pasta, but I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some garlic and Parmesan cheese to the sauce, and it was much better.

I'm not a fan of the texture of homemade pasta, but the sauce in this recipe is amazing. I'll definitely be making it again, but with store-bought pasta.

The pasta was a bit too firm for my taste, but the sauce was spot on. Next time, I'll cook the pasta for a minute or two less.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I also added some chopped mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes, and it was a hit with my family.
