Penne with a creamy alfredo sauce


I love creamy, savory, all around fattening foods. This is one of my daughter's favorite dish and fairly simple to make too.

1 lb of penne (or you choice of noodles)
boil in a separate pot

sauce
1 Pint heavy cream
1/2 cup of unsalted butter
1 cup of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
a clove of garlic finely minced
1 cup of spinach sautéed optional

Heat cream over medium heat, add butter and whisk until melted. Sprinkle cheese and stir until mixture is smooth. Add garlic and freshly cracked black pepper (again optional). Drain pasta and put back into pot, stir in sauce add spinach and serve
