Ingredients

• 8 oz. uncooked penne or farfalle
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 8 cups baby spinach
• 1 tbsp. chopped garlic
• 2 oz. fontina cheese, shredded
• 1/2 cup ricotta
• 1 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Directions

1. Prepare pasta in a large stockpot as directed. Drain pasta, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Return pasta and reserved cooking liquid to stockpot.

2. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high. Add spinach and garlic; cook, stirring often, until spinach wilts and garlic is slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
