Description
I love clams, but they can be a little pricey as a main dish. Stretch out that briny goodness by adding other ingredients that enhance and deepen their salty-sweet flavor. With a nice loaf of crusty artisan bread or Portuguese sweet bread, this dinner is a surprising collection of flavors and textures.

Instructions
In a medium pot or wide saucepan, heat the oil and sauté the garlic for 1 minute. Add the basil, pepper flakes, and the Portuguese sausage, and cook until the sausage pieces are slightly browned (at this point you can tilt the pot/pan and take out any excess oil). Add the wine and beans, and turn up the heat to a brisk boil until the liquid is reduced by 1/3. Add in the clams and butter. When all the clams have opened (discard any that don't), add in the spinach and parsley, toss gently and season to taste.
Serve in a shallow bowl, and be sure to provide a generous hunk of bread.
