A delightful pasta bake combining creamy gouda cheese and fresh spinach for a comforting meal.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a perfect bake.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the green onions and garlic, cooking until fragrant.
Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Stir in the flour and cook for a minute to form a roux.
Cooking the flour removes its raw taste.
Gradually whisk in the milk, salt, and pepper, cooking until the mixture thickens.
Keep whisking to avoid lumps in the sauce.
Add the gouda and parmesan cheeses, stirring until melted and smooth.
Ensure the cheese is fully melted for a creamy texture.
Mix in the spinach and cooked macaroni, ensuring everything is well coated.
Fold gently to avoid breaking the pasta.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
Use panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until bubbly and golden on top.
Check occasionally to prevent over-browning.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy spinach and gouda pasta bake.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs for added color.
