How to Make Spinach And Mushroom Pasta Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Cook 1 pound of pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  3. While pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for 30 seconds.
  6. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms and cook until they release most of their liquid, about 5 minutes.
  7. Add 10 ounces of fresh spinach and 1/4 cup of dry white wine. Cook until spinach is wilted and most of the wine has evaporated, about 3 minutes.
  8. Stir in 24 ounces (1 and 1/2 cups) of marinara sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir until heated through.
  9. Add 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
  10. In a 2-quart casserole dish, spread a thin layer of the sauce on the bottom.
  11. Add half of the cooked pasta, half of the remaining sauce, and half of 8 ounces of shredded mozzarella cheese.
  12. Repeat layers with remaining pasta, sauce, and mozzarella.
  13. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
