• 3 cups 1% milk

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions

In a large pot, combine pasta, milk, broth, salt and carrot and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring often.

Reduce to medium heat and continue cooking and stirring, uncovered, for 10-13 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and pasta is cooked. If liquid is absorbed before pasta is cooked, add an additional ½-3/4 cup liquid and continue cooking.

Remove from heat and stir in peas and spinach, stir. Cover and let sit 2 minutes until peas are warmed through and spinach is wilted.
