PREPARATION

1
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish with the olive oil.
2
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta for 2 minutes less than the package directions to ensure it stays al dente after baking.
3
Place the cottage cheese into a small food processor or blender and pulse until it is completely smooth and creamy.
4
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the blended cottage cheese, marinara sauce, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
5
Drain the pasta and immediately fold it into the sauce along with the fresh baby spinach, allowing the residual heat to wilt the leaves.
6
Transfer the pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
7
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese on top has turned a light golden brown.
