Capellini with sausage and spinach

Quite easy and tasty. Hopefully you won't get e. coli from the spinach.

2 tsp olive oil
1 pound of sweet Italian sausage, sliced in 1/2 slices
1 large onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, chopped
2 cans (14 oz. each) chicken broth
1/4 cup of water
8 oz. of capellini or vermicelli pasta, broken in half
2 bags (10 oz. each) fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
1/3 cup heavy or whipping cream

Heat oil in Dutch oven or stockpot over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook 3 to 4 minutes, turning as it browns. Add onion and garlic and cook 2 to 3 minutes, until lightly browned.

Add broth and water to pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Add pasta and cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add spinach and pepper and cook, stirring spinach into pasta and sauce, 2 to 3 minutes more, until past is al dente and spinach is wilted. Stir in cream. Serve immediately.
