Recipe by Susan Russo Low-fat cream cheese and silky mascarpone combine to make a dreamy sauce for this dish. Fresh lemon rind brightens up the flavor profile. Serve with green beans for a simple side to this delicious meal.

Ingredients

1 (9-ounce) package refrigerated fresh linguine 3 tablespoons 1/3-less-fat cream cheese 1 1/2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 4 cups baby spinach leaves 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved 1/4 cup sliced fresh basil 2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Instructions

Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain pasta in a colander over a bowl, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Add cream cheese and mascarpone cheese to bowl, stirring with a whisk until smooth. Stir in lemon rind and the next 4 ingredients (through nutmeg). Heat saucepan over medium-high heat. Add pasta and cream cheese mixture to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in spinach and tomatoes; cook 2 minutes or until spinach wilts, stirring frequently. Remove pan from heat; stir in basil. Sprinkle evenly with cheese; serve immediately.
