CHEESE AND SPANICH PASTA BAKE

This recipe is light and delicious.  It is made with cottage cheese so it has less calories. 


2 cups ziti
1 bunch or package baby spanich (1/2 kg)
1 cup mushrooms
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 cup cottage cheese
1 large chopped tomatos with Italian seasoning or spicy pasta sauce
1 cup grated marble cheese
2 tablespoons cooking oil
1 tablespoon thyme
salt and blackpepper
  • Wash the baby spanich, and mushrooms and chop them
  • Saute spanich, chopped onions, garlic and mushrooms.  If you like, you can drain.  I usually leave the juices in because we like dipping our garlic bread in it.
  • Cook pasta normally in salted water and drain
  • Mix together vegetables, pasta, cottage cheese, tomatos (or the sauce) and the seasoning
  • Spray a glass pan with pam
  • Add your pasta mixture
  • Sprinkle grated cheese
  • Preheat oven at 350
  • Cook for 45 to 50 minutes
  • Leave for 15 minutes before serving
  • Serve with Garlic bread for dipping in juice and ceaser salad
