Spinach Ricotta Pasta Bake
Al dente spinach pasta baked with creamy ricotta and savory shredded chicken, topped with a vibrant marinara sauce and bubbly melted parmesan.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz spinach pasta
3 oz cooked shredded chicken breast
0.25 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.5 cup low-sugar marinara sauce
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Boil the spinach pasta in a pot of salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Gently fold the shredded chicken and fresh baby spinach into the ricotta mixture until the spinach begins to wilt slightly from the warmth of the chicken.
Toss the cooked pasta with the ricotta mixture and half of the marinara sauce until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a small oven-safe baking dish and spread the remaining marinara sauce over the top.
Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are golden brown.
