Mixed Greens with Parsley-Lemon Vinaigrette
Clock

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 3 links cooked chicken sausage (9 oz), sliced into rounds
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 (8-oz) can no-salt-added tomato sauce
  • 4 cups lightly packed baby spinach (half of a 5-oz box)
  • 6 cups cooked whole-wheat rotini pasta
  • ¼ cup chopped pitted Kalamata olives
  • ½ cup finely crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage, onion and garlic; cook, stirring often, until the onion is starting to brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Add tomato sauce, spinach, pasta and olives; cook, stirring often, until bubbling hot and the spinach is wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 1 to 2 Tbsp water, if necessary, to keep the pasta from sticking. Stir in feta and basil, if using.

  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
  • 2 tsp minced shallot
  • ¾ tsp salt

Side Dish Instructions

  1. Combine oil, lemon zest and juice, parsley, shallot and salt in an 8-oz mason jar. Shake vigorously until combined.
