Creamy Pesto Pasta Bake
Ingredients
400 g Cooked pasta
1 cup Heavy cream
2-3 Garlic cloves
½ teaspoon Chili flakes
1 cup Baby spinach
½ cup Pesto
⅓ cup Parmesan cheese
¾ teaspoon Salt
⅓ teaspoon Black pepper
1 ½ cups Mozzarella cheese
Directions
Preheat an oven to 200c (400f). And cook the pasta according to the package instructions. We suggest cooking the pasta to al dente because the pasta cooks more when bakes.
In a 13×9 inch baking pan, add the cooked pasta, basil pesto, minced garlic, Parmesan, chili flakes, salt and pepper, heavy cream, and the baby spinach, and carefully mix with a wooden spoon until the ingredients are well combined.
Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese on top, we like to use it a lot, but you are free to use it as much as you like.
Bake the pasta in a 200c (400f) preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese is slightly golden brown on top.
Serve by itself or next to your favorite protein or salad and enjoy!
