Sausage, Green Chili, Tomato and Spinach Pasta

This tops the list in my house of our favorite dinners, for my husband especially. This dish incorporates a burst tomato sauce mixed with cream that is so light and refreshing. Make sure if you are making this for children to add no more then one sliced green chili. They can add a serious kick. My husband and I love it hot so I will make this with extra chilies especially for us!

1 lb. Ground Sweet Italian Sausage
1-2 Green Chilies, sliced
4 Garlic cloves, minced
1 large pack Grape Tomatoes
1 lb. Linguini
Spinach, chopped
1-2 cups Heavy Cream

Brown sausage. Add garlic and chilies; stir. Add grape tomatoes and cover. Shake pot to stir. Meanwhile, cook pasta as directed on package. Before draining, reserve 1 cup of cooking water and set aside. Once tomatoes begin to prune and burst, use a slotted spoon or potato masher to mash. Stir in the noodles, cup of reserved cooking water, and spinach to the sauce. Mix well. Add 1-2 cups of cream over low heat and mix until sauce covers pasta.
