10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parmesan cheese, shredded

Here is how you make Baked Spinach and Pasta:

Cook noodles according to package directions.While noodles are cooking, make a white sauce - add flour to an 8 oz measuring cup, then add a small amount of milk to the flour. Stir until flour is absorbed and there are no lumps. Fill the rest of the measuring cup with milk so that the total amount is 8 oz.Melt butter in small pot, then add milk/flour mixture. Stir continually over med-high heat until the white sauce has thickened. Add salt & pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.In a frying pan, saute onion in olive oil until translucent. Add garlic and continue cooking for 3 minutes.In a large mixing bowl, combine noodles, cooked onions and spinach. Add a little white sauce to the beaten egg and then add egg mixture and remaining white sauce to the spinach and noodles. Add kosher salt and pepper. Mix well.Pour into casserole dish sprayed with cooking spray (I used a 2 quart dish, but an 8x8 inch dish should also work).Sprinkle top with Parmesan cheese.Cook for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.Serving Size:?4
