Great fast weeknight pasta dish that goes well for just family or for guests. I got this out of Chatelaine May 2005.

Categories     Crab

Time 18m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups pasta, uncooked, any short penne, rotini, fusilli etc
3/4 cup alfredo sauce
8 ounces imitation crabmeat (I use the real thing)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 cups Baby Spinach
1/2 cup milk (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta as directed according to package.
  • Pour alfredo sauce into a large saucepan set over medium heat. Meanwhile, slice crab into chunks. Stir in crab and nutmeg. If pasta is not ready yet, reduce heat to low and cover to keep warm.
  • When pasta is cooked, drain well. Then add to sauce in pan. Stir in spinach. If sauce is too thick, stir in milk, 1/4 cup at a time. Stir until warmed through, 1 or 2 more minutes. Serve in big pasta bowls.
