# How to Prepare:
01 - Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced onion, sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
02 - Add the julienned sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute to release flavors.
03 - Stir in the uncooked pasta, vegetable broth, heavy cream, and whole milk, ensuring the pasta is fully submerged.
04 - Season with dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered, stirring frequently for 10 to 12 minutes until pasta is al dente and sauce thickens.
05 - Fold in baby spinach and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until wilted.
06 - Stir grated Parmesan cheese into the sauce until fully melted and combined.
07 - Remove from heat. Gently fold in fresh basil and parsley. Adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan and red pepper flakes if desired.
