Ingredients

  • 4 Cloves garlic minced
  • 10 Oz package frozen spinach
  • 14 Oz can or jar artichoke hearts drained and chopped
  • 15 Oz jar alfredo pasta sauce
  • 1-1/4 Cups shredded mozzarella cheese divided (1 cup mixed in and 1/4 cup to top the pasta with)
  • 1/3 Cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 8 Oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 - 1/2 Cup milk depending on how thin/thick you like your pasta sauce to be
  • 16 Oz box rotini pasta (or use your favorite pasta shape) Cooked

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cook the frozen spinach in the microwave per the package instructions, subtracting a minute from the total cook time OR thaw it completely and don’t cook it in the microwave. Either way will work. Squeeze off the liquid from the spinach either by hand, or by placing it in a colander & pressing it down with a spoon or your fingers.
  • In an 2 quart baking dish, combine all your ingredients - reserving ¼ cup of mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until cheeses are melted and bubbly. Remove, & sprinkle on remaining ¼ cup of cheese. Put it back in the oven for a couple of minutes for the cheese to melt. Serve warm.

Notes

You can cook the spinach from frozen in the microwave and then mix it in to the ingredients. You can also just thaw it and not cook it before mixing it in. Either way will work!
