Spinach could be the worst nightmare for any kid, however with this dish don’t be surprised when they ask for another plate. Seafood pasta is my obsession, it’s cheesey, it’s creamy and savory. Even the peaky eaters will love.
The good thing about this recipe, not just make dinner time easy, it’s also a great option for your weeknight roundup.
On top of that it’s super fast and healthy making it the perfect combo for working mothers.

NOTES :
Feel free to use any kind of pasta you like. If you prefer corkscrews, linguine or spaghetti, it will perfectly work as much as the penne pasta do.
I like to serve mashed potatoes with it. Egg noodles or crusty bread as well.
Don’t use frozen spinach.
