Smoked Sausage, White Bean and Spinach Pasta

I made this as directed once and it was a little bland. The next time I added 3 tbsp minced onions, 1 tbsp diced garlic, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and I increases the broth to 1 cup. It was so good I added it to our rotation. I also made it with smoked chicken sausage to make it that much healthier. I have a developmentally disabled daughter who won't eat vegetables. Once she tried it, she clean the plate and wanted more!

Easy to make meal in one pot. I left out the pine nuts and broth, used a can of tomatoes (with juice) instead of cherry tomatoes, and used fresh green beans because I didn't have zucchini. Cooked green beans in the tomatoes and juice. Everyone liked it. I will try it with the zucchini next time.

I made this, but used artichoke hearts instead of zucchini, and added fresh garlic (4 cloves minced), red pepper flakes, and definitely mushed some of the beans to thicken the sauce. I also used 1 cup of vegetable broth. Came out delicious!

Bland and generally awful.

I am too much of a novice to roast pine nuts so I roasted sunflower seeds. Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. It was delicious and the presentation was terrific. I might try to make it with spaghetti just because it was so light and flavorful maybe it would like being married to spaghetti.

Great simple fairly healthy dish. Made it pretty much as is but added 1 cup of vegetable broth VS 1/2 cup. thanks for the idea.

I made this as one of my soups for dropping calories. Varied by adding more broth but had no squash. The sausage I used was from the Salt Lick smoke house in Texas. It was so good it'd make your tongue slap your gums to death!

This was a tasty meal - slightly boring but will make again for sure. It takes longer than the time the recipe says though and dirties up a ton of dishes.

I did like this! I thought it was quite good. Based on what I had available I did some different things but in general it was the same. I used chicken sausage vs. pork. I used crushed tomatoes vs. cherry I added onions and garlic Between the Spinach, whole wheat pasta and beans, there is a lot of fiber in this meal so it is quite filling. I think I was still full the next morning!

This is a great, hearty recipe. I did make a few additions to make it even better. I added sundried tomatoes, a couple dashes of pepper flakes and I doubled the vegetable broth for more of a sauce. Delish!

turned out great I used garlic chicken smoked sausage

This is really good. I did not have zucchini or fresh cherry tomatoes but I used (some) canned tomatoes.

I used 1 can of navy beans, 1 frozen pkg of broccoli, 1 cup chicken bouiliion. I sautéed minced garlic, onion with the sausage, seasoned with Grill Mates Chipotle & roasted garlic seasoning and Lawhorn's Signature Seasoning and pepper. Very good

I left out the pine nuts because I didn't have any and I honestly could have done without the tomatoes. I had to substitute chicken broth for the vegetable broth. I'm giving it 3 stars based on how I made it, not necessarily the way it was supposed to turn out.

I made this and it was quick and easy on the stove top so it didn't require heating up the kitchen too much. I used black beans instead of white. Tasted great!
