Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Heat Guide for Step 6: 1/4 tsp mild, 1/2 tsp medium and 1 tsp spicy! Add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Add rigatoni to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min. Drain and return rigatoni to same pot, off heat.
While rigatoni cooks, roughly chop spinach. Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Pat pork dry with paper towels, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch strips. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then pork. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pork is cooked through, 3-4 min.**
