Spinach Noodle Casserole Recipes

SPINACH AND EGG NOODLE CASSEROLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Microwave the spinach according to box instructions. Meanwhile, boil a large pot of water for the noodles.
• Sautee the onion and garlic with the olive oil in a pan. Salt and pepper.
• When spinach is done you have to drain it. I don't have a cheesecloth but if you do, squeeze all the water out. If you are like me - use your hands.
• Add the spinach to the onions and garlic. Add sliced cherry tomatoes and cook for a few minutes.
• Pour entire mixture into the drained egg noodles and stir. Add your shredded mozzarella cheese and a handful of Parmesan cheese. Stir once more. Salt and pepper.
• Use the pan you just took the onions and spinach out of and melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and then the milk. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Cook until it thickens - around 5 minutes.
• In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks and then pour some of the butter mixture into the bowl to temper the eggs. Then add eggs into your pan and cook for a few more minutes.
• Turn on your boiler.
• Add the butter mixture to your pasta and stir together. Place in your pan.
• Top with panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese evenly. Place in broiler for a few minutes. Keep an eye that you don't burn the panko breadcrumbs. This is so important because my oven is evil!!!
• When you feel good about your browning, take the dish out and serve!
