Add fresh spinach and parsley, and continue cooking and stirring until the spinach wilts, about 1 minute.

Bring to a simmer, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring continuously until sauce thickens slightly.

Season with salt and pepper.

Reduce heat to medium low, and add cooked pasta to skillet, stirring continuously until pasta is fully coated in sauce and warmed through.
