How to Make Pasta And Spinach
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook 1 pound pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While pasta cooks, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 10 ounces fresh spinach, chopped, and cook until wilted, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for 1 minute more.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups heavy cream, 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add the cooked spinach and onion mixture to the cream sauce and stir to combine.
- Add the drained pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water until desired consistency is reached.
- Pour the pasta mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of extra Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly browned on top.
