Stouffer's meatballs spaghetti, stretched
When you have one frozen dish and two people to feed, open the box and add what makes it stretch. The frozen spaghetti comes sauced and ready; garlic, spinach, and a little butter turn it into something that feels built for tonight.

To buy
- 3 ounces fresh spinach
From your shelf
- 1 package Stouffer's classics with meatballs spaghetti
Staples
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Preheat the oven to 350°F [175°C] and transfer the frozen spaghetti to a baking dish, breaking it apart gently with a fork so it heats evenly.
- Mince 2 cloves garlic. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat, add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add 3 ounces fresh spinach and stir until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake the spaghetti until heated through at the center, about 20 to 22 minutes. While it bakes, the spinach stays warm in the skillet.
- Transfer the spaghetti to a serving bowl or plates and fold in the garlic spinach mixture until combined.
Note Swap spinach for arugula, kale, or mushrooms sautéed the same way. Leftovers keep refrigerated for two days; reheat gently in a skillet with a splash of water. Serve with grated Parmesan and a green salad or roasted broccoli on the side.
