What’s more, skillet lasagna eliminates the tedious process of arranging noddles, ricotta filling and cheese in order–all without compromising on taste!
Ingredients:
12 oz Farfalle Pasta
24 oz Pasta Sauce
2/3 cup Partly Skim Ricotta Cheese
10 oz Frozen Spinach
Mozzarella Cheese
Directions:
- Boil farfalle pasta in water, as instructed on the box.
- Meanwhile, place the frozen spinach in a bowl and defrost in the microwave–should take 5-6 minutes. Once defrosted, remove all the excess water from the spinach.
- While spinach is defrosting, heat a skillet on low heat. Add 2/3 cup partly skim ricotta cheese, 1/3 cup at a time. Mix to incorporate the ricotta cheese in the pasta sauce. Let the sauce simmer.
- Add spinach to the sauce. Mix until spinach is evenly spread throughout the sauce.
- Add salt, to taste–roughly 1-2 teaspoons–to the pasta sauce.
- Drain pasta in a strainer and add to the skillet. Mix the pasta in the sauce until evenly coated.
- Top with mozzarella cheese and serve!
