A tasty meatless pasta meal, made with spinach and three types of cheese.

Ingredients

4 cups small pasta
1 package (10 oz) spinach
1 cup cottage cheese
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup boiling chicken broth

Directions

1. Cook pasta and drain.
2. Wash spinach and drain well. Cook in a pot with the water clinging to the leaves, just until tender and wilted. Drain and squeeze out any remaining water. Chop.
3. Combine in a large bowl with the cottage cheese, feta cheese, yogurt, 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese, salt, tabasco sauce, basil and thyme. Stir in the pasta. Place in a 1 1/2 quart casserole.
4. Melt butter. Stir in flour. Slowly pour in boiling broth while stirring. Pour sauce over the pasta. Top with remaining Parmesan cheese.
5. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 to 35 minutes. Makes 4 servings.

Notes

Shell pasta works well - but any type of pasta, e.g. macaroni, etc. can be used. You can use low fat cottage cheese and feta cheese.
