2 cups fresh baby spinach
1/2 cup heavy cream

Brown your choice of meat over medium heat. Cook for about 6-7 minutes. Add the next four ingredients and cook for about 3 more minutes. Add in the tomatoes. Cook for about 2 minutes.
Step 2:
Add the chicken broth and mustard and bring to a boil. Add in the next two ingredients, allow them to cook. Stir frequently and cook pasta for about six minutes. Add spinach and stir.
