Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, if using (see notes below). Add sliced chicken sausage and spinach, and saute for 3-4 minutes, until sausage is warmed and spinach is slightly wilted.

Notes

I don't use any olive oil here because the sausage and the spinach cook so quickly and have enough moisture on their own. Plus, I use a non-stick pan. If you are using another type of pan or if your pan seems dry with these ingredients, feel free to use a teaspoon or two of extra-virgin olive oil.
