A delightful twist on classic mac and cheese, combining creamy pasta with nutritious spinach and a crispy topping.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
Spread half of the cooked macaroni evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Use a spatula to level the macaroni for an even layer.
Distribute the thawed and drained spinach over the macaroni layer.
Press the spinach gently to remove excess moisture before layering.
Top the spinach with the remaining macaroni, spreading it evenly.
Ensure the top layer is smooth for even topping distribution.
In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, melted butter, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Mix until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated with butter.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the macaroni.
Cover the entire surface for a consistent crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the dish is bubbling.
Check the dish at 30 minutes to avoid over-browning.
Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Cooling allows the layers to set for easier serving.
