This creamy sun-dried tomato and spinach pasta is a quick and easy weeknight meal for when you find yourself scouring the pantry looking for dinner ideas! It involves whirling up that jar of sun-dried tomatoes (that you don't know what to do with!) into a sun-dried tomato pesto of sorts and then combining it with a quick and easy béchamel sauce. The results are a fantastic "Pantry pasta dinner" this is sublime!
