Creamy Spinach Noodle Toss

Easy and fast! I do have to say one thing about it that freaked me out. . . the recipe actually uses the bacon drippings in the sauce. I just can't bring myself to do it, so I replaced it with butter.

Creamy Spinach Noodle Toss

1 12 oz pkg. of egg noodles, I used Amish Kitchen Kluski Noodles
