Italian Spinach &Amp; Pasta Bake

Italian Spinach &Amp; Pasta Bake


1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 3qt baking dish.

2. Boil the water and cook the pasta according to package directions. DO NOT ever add oil to the water! It will make your sauce slide off the pasta later.

3. Meanwhile heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.

4. Add the heavy cream, romano cheese, Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Whisk and cook until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Add spinach.

5. In a little bowl, mix the ricotta and the egg together and add this and the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss to mix everything up and spoon into baking dish.

6. Cover with foil and bake 25 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle evenly with mozzarella and then a little paprika to give it a pretty color. Return to oven for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and starting to brown.
