½ cup cherry tomatoes
2 cups baby spinach
1 container Castello® Paprika & Chili Whipped Dip 5.3oz

1. Cook pasta according to package directions, reserving ½ cup pasta cooking water.

3. Using the same pan, add tomatoes and cook until softened and blistered, about 5-7 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, another 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Add the Paprika & Chili Whipped Dip to the skillet along with lemon juice and ¼ cup reserved cooking liquid. Add pasta to the pan and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and add more pasta water, if needed. Enjoy!
