Ingredients

3 cups Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup spinach, chopped (fresh or frozen)

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for a kick)

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the rotini pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

      Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped spinach, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes if using. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly coated with the spices.

        Combine with Alfredo Sauce: Add the cooked pasta to the chicken mixture, followed by the Alfredo sauce. Stir gently until all ingredients are well mixed and the pasta is coated with the sauce.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

            Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the pasta mixture.

              Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

                Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your creamy comfort food!
