4 cups Swanson® Unsalted Chicken Broth or Swanson® 33% Less Sodium Chicken Broth
1 can (10.5 ounces) Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup

2 cups coarsely chopped packed baby spinach
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Heat the oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off any fat.

Stir in the broth and soup and heat to a boil. Stir in the pasta. Reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes or until the pasta is tender, stirring occasionally. Add the spinach and cook and stir just until wilted. Stir in the Parmesan cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
