I have been craving lemon so have been searching recipes to use up the bag of lemons I bought. This one is a winner with the rich color from spinach and salty flavor of parmesan. I enjoyed the quick pasta recipe after a day at work and sipped a bone dry rose' wine along with it which matches the tanginess of the fresh lemon juice.
