Spinach and Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta

Another tasty pasta recipe.  As my husband would say: "Good stuff Maynard."

1 C vegetable broth
12 sundried tomatoes
8 oz penne pasta, cooked
2 Tbsp pine nuts
1 Tbsp oil
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
a few handfuls of spinach
Parmesan cheese  to garnish

Bring broth to boil.  Remove from heat.  Place tomatoes in broth for 15 minutes or until softened.  Remove tomatoes and dice them.

Place pine nuts in a skillet.  Cook over medium heat until lightly toasted.  Add oil and red pepper.  Saute garlic 1 minute.  Mix in spinach and cook until almost wilted.  Pour in broth  and add tomatoes.  Cook until heated through.  Toss with pasta.  Garnish with Parmesan.

And little boy is still eating away.  His next new food was carrots and he loved them from the very first bite.  More please?  (Yes, I know, the above picture isn't orange and therefore isn't carrots, but isn't he cute?)

Boil or steam 2 C washed, peeled carrot chunks with 3/4 C water until carrots are mushy.  Puree with cooking water.  Add water if needed for thinner consistency.  Freeze in ice cube trays.
