Spinach pasta bake

We used fresh spinach to make out baked pasta with spinach but if you use frozen spinach that’s a good option too. We wanted to make this dish as healthy as possible and eat it without any guilt so we didn’t make this recipe creamy but if creamy pasta is your thing feel free to add some heavy cream to the casserole before baking.

Serve this spinach pasta casserole with a generous green side salad for a filling, healthy dinner that everyone will enjoy! We decided to pair this vegetarian pasta with this chicken sauce recipe in an attempt to keep the meat lovers of our family happy too!
