Ingredients

• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 ½ tablespoons butter
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1 (16 ounce) package fusilli pasta
• 4 cups fresh spinach
• 2 shallots, minced
• ½ cup Gorgonzola cheese

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook fusilli in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.

Step 2

In the meantime, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook shallots until soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in cream and cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Add spinach and crumble in Gorgonzola cheese. Season with salt and pepper and cook until spinach is wilted and sauce has thickened, about 4 minutes.

Step 3

Drain fusilli and toss with sauce. Serve immediately.
