Instructions

Sauté the spinach in a non-stick pan, stirring occasionally, just until wilted but not mushy. Remove the skillet from heat and let the spinach cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except the pasta and stir until evenly mixed.
Add the pasta to the spinach dip mixture and stir to combine.
Cover and chill for at least four hours or up to overnight before serving.

Notes

For a little extra flavor, consider adding diced bell peppers or olives.
Feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your preference, especially with salt and pepper.
This salad can be made a day ahead of time for better flavor.
