Broccoli and spinach pasta bake
This is creamy vegetable pasta layered with cheese, straight from the package into a hot oven. The alfredo base already binds the cooked pasta and mixed vegetables, so all you do is top it and bake until it browns. Supper in thirty minutes.

- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top, then scatter 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella across the surface. Season with salt and pepper.
