Sausage, Spinach and Feta Pasta

I can't remember where I found this recipe but we both love it!!!

1 tsp oil
1 1/4 lbs beef sausages, cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 tbsp oil
1 cup chopped red onion
4 cups fresh spinach leaves, lightly packed
3 cups chopped tomato
1 1/2 tsp dried basil
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 tsp pepper

Heat cooking oil in large frying pan on medium. Add sausage. Cook for about 10 min, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink. Transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Discard drippings.

Heat olive oil in same large frying pan. Add onion. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring often until soft.

Add spinach, tomato and basil. Heat and stir for about 2 minutes until spinach starts to wilt.

Add sausage, cheese and pepper. Heat and stir about 2 min until heated through and cheese is almost melted.

Serve over pasta.

Mmm... that sounds yummy! Do you actually use beef sausage, because most sausage is made out of pork isn't it??

I just buy whatever sausage we would normally buy for bbqing. I guess you're right about it being pork. Some of them are a mix of both.
