# How to Make It:
01 - Heat a splash of olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened.
02 - Incorporate the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
03 - Stir in the uncooked pasta, vegetable broth, and heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
04 - Add dried oregano, dried basil, ground nutmeg, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes if desired. Stir thoroughly to combine.
05 - Cover the skillet and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
06 - Incorporate the chopped spinach and cream cheese. Continue cooking while stirring occasionally until the pasta is al dente and the spinach has wilted, about 5 to 7 minutes.
07 - Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is creamy.
08 - Taste and modify seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley and extra Parmesan if preferred.
