From Sarah Lipoff, POPSUGAR Food

20-Minute Easy Spinach, Ham, and Mushroom Fettuccine

Ingredients

  1. 8 ounces Fettuccine noodles
    1 cup baby cremini mushrooms, halved
    1 teaspoon chopped garlic
    1 teaspoon olive oil
    1 tablespoon water
    4 slices HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE® Honey Deli Ham, cut in strips
    1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
    1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
    1 cup pre-made Alfredo sauce
    1/2 cup milk
    1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
    1/4 teaspoon fresh black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon dried parsley

Directions

  1. Bring a large stock pot of salted water to a boil and add the fettuccine noodles.
  2. Place the mushrooms, chopped garlic, olive oil, and water in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the mushrooms start to cook through.
  3. Add the sliced ham and balsamic vinegar, cooking until the ham starts to brown, an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Lower the heat and add the spinach.
  4. Toss the cooked fettuccine noodles in the pan. Gently mix with the premade fettuccine sauce and milk, coating the noodles. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
  5. Top with the Parmesan cheese, fresh black pepper, and dried parsley. You’re ready for dinner!
