Notes
- Add some extra flavour to this dish with a sprinkle of chilli flakes before serving.
- To make this even quicker, use some fresh tagliatelle which is ready in a few minutes.
- We used parmesan on top, but you could add cheddar, mozzarella or goats cheese.
- Mix this dish up a little by turning it in to a pasta bake.
- You can swap the spinach for kale, but make sure it is chopped up small so it cooks well.
- Add a splash of olive oil to the pan before serving for an extra boost of flavour.
- You can add any veggies that you have that need using up. Mushrooms, pepper and courgette work well.
- We used cannellini beans, but you can use any can of white beans that you have.
