Pasta with sweet potato sauce and spinach

Here is another super easy dish you can make if you have precooked pasta sauce. I used my spiced sweet potato and tomato sauce, which is enough for 2-3 meals. This pasta with sweet potato sauce and spinach is vegan, gluten-free (if appropriate pasta is used) and ready in just 10 minutes - perfect on busy or lazy days. I served it with crispy salad on the side.
