Pasta in bell pepper sauce with spinach, chorizo, and tomato

A lightning-fast, easy, creamy, spicy, and just super delicious pasta dish; the flavor is rich with a fresh touch from the tomatoes and topped with a bit of parmesan, you get a flavor mix that is just perfect. A dish that can be ready in just 25 minutes but tastes and looks like so much more.
