Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 7 ounces smoked sausage, sliced into rounds
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chiles
- 8 ounces wide egg noodles
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 3 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

Directions
Step 1 -In a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil and the sausage and cook until the sausage is well-browned.
