    Sounds like it would be good even as a cold pasta salad if you skipped the marinara sauce, added some salt and pepper (and grilled chicken!)... Yum!

    It sounds good - BUT - I don't think the calories are correct.
    The recipe says 176 calories. I think it's closer to 350 calories per serving if the recipe serves 6.

    Ingredients

    4 cups cooked whole wheat penne (cook to al dente)
    6 cups (loosely packed) baby spinach
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 (24 ounce) jar marinara, no sugar added
    1 (14.5 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and cut in half
    1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
    1 cup part-skim, shredded mozzarella
    1 cup ricotta, low-fat
    1 egg white
    1/2 teaspoon sea salt to taste
    1/4 cup parmesan

    Directions

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Chop or tear spinach leaves into small pieces. Add olive oil to a large skillet, heat to medium-low, add spinach and cook just until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked penne, marinara, wilted spinach and artichokes, toss to combine. In another large mixing bowl, combine cheeses, egg white, oregano, black pepper, red pepper flakes and salt. In a 9" x 13" casserole dish, add 1/2 of penne mixture, top with 1/2 of cheese mixture and continue layering until all ingredients have been used. The cheese mixture should go on last. Sprinkle parmesan over pasta and additional freshly ground black pepper if desired. Bake until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes
