1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the whole-wheat spaghetti. Cook as per the package instructions until al dente.
2
While the spaghetti is cooking, heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced white onion and sauté until softened, around 3 minutes.
3
Add the sliced sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, along with the minced garlic, and crushed red pepper. Stir and cook for another minute.
4
Increase the heat to medium-high, add the low-sodium vegetable broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broth has reduced by half, approximately 2 minutes.
5
Stir in the sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and unsalted butter. Keep stirring until a smooth sauce forms.
6
Drain the spaghetti, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water. Add the cooked spaghetti and chopped baby spinach to the skillet, toss to combine. The heat will wilt the spinach. Add the reserved pasta water as needed to thin the sauce.
7
Season the pasta with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
