Step 1

Cook pasta as directed

Meanwhile, heat oil in a 10-12" nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; saute 2 minutes or until just beginning to brown. Add sausage and cook, crumbling with a spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes.

Stir in chicken broth, stirring to dissolve any browned bits. Stir in cream and nutmeg; simmer 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Place spinach in colander; drain pasta over the spinach (spinach will wilt). Return pasta and spinach to pot; toss with sausage mixture.
