Quick Spinach Cannanoli

Sorry guys, been very busy. n-o-t-i-m-e-t-o-b-r-e-a-d-t-h!




Over the weekend managed to make this and it was simple and quick. Surprisingly DH liked it so much that he requested for it to be on the weekly weekend menu!! Also as much as Master Prince protested that he hated spinach blah-blah and giving me i'm-being-poisoned-faced...he polished it up. All you need is some spinach (fresh or frozen). If using fresh, you will need to wash and blanch the spinach in hot water for about 4 min, drain and immediately plug into cold water, gently squeeze out excess water from spinach. In a bowl, mix spinach with your preference of feta or ricotta and olives or anchovies. Stuff them into the cannanoli (tube) pasta. Using Leggo's bottled classic bolognaise sauce, spread some sauce thinly at the bottom of an oven/heat-proof dish, place the stuffed pasta on top and layer another thin layer of the bolognaise sauce or if you wish, can use white/cream sauce. Spread some shredded cheese of your choice on top and bake in preheated oven at 220C degrees for about 30min until the cheese is melty and golden in colour.



There you go, a very quick healthy chessy affair!
