Three-Cheese Baked Ziti with Spinach
We’ve stepped up the traditional baked ziti by adding some fresh spinach to the mix. While this dish looks and tastes like it took a lot of effort to pull together, you only need 15 minutes to prep it. What makes this dish even better is that you can assemble it ahead of time and then just pop it into the oven 30 minutes before dinnertime.
Ingredients
1 package (1 pound) uncooked medium tube-shaped pasta (ziti)1 bag (6 ounces) baby spinach, washed (about 4 cups)1 jar (24 ounces) Prego® Three Cheese Italian Sauce1 cup reduced fat (part skim) ricotta cheese1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (about 4 ounces)0.75 cup grated Parmesan cheese1 small clove garlic, minced0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper

Drain the ziti and spinach well in a colander.
