Sausage and Spinach pasta

My Spinach in my garden this year is growing like crazy and I was looking for a new way to cook it. My friend Danielle gave me this we tried it tonight and it was yummy. It is a lot like my other recipe Pasta with sausage tomatoes and cream. P.S supper yummy for dinner last night eating leftovers for lunch today and not as good. Gobble it up :)

1 lb gemelli pasta (I used rotini I am sure anything would work)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 small onion (chopped)
1 lb spicy Italian sausage
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup hvy. cream
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 bags (5-6 oz each) baby spinach
Grated Parmesan

Bring salted water to a boil. Cook pasta.
Meanwhile, heat oil in skillet over med-high heat. Add onion; saute 2 min. or until just beginning to brown. Add sausage & cook, crumbling with spoon, until browned.
Stir in chicken broth. Stir in cream & nutmeg; simmer 1 minute. Remove from heat.
Place spinach in colander; drain pasta over the spinach (spinach will wilt). Return pasta & spinach to pot; toss with sausage mixture. Serve with grated Parmesan.
