Spinach and Bacon Pasta Toss image

I got this recipe off a Kraft calendar. I made a few alterations and we think it's really good. Simple enough for a weeknight and pretty enough for guests.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I always have a bunch of spinach in my fridge that I don't know what to do with.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really watery. I think I may have added too much milk.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out perfectly! The pasta was cooked al dente and the sauce was creamy and flavorful.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more garlic and red pepper flakes to give it a little more flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this dish. The bacon and cheese helped to balance out the flavor of the spinach.
