Easy, quick prep any time in advance then 15-20 minutes in the oven. Ever since my daughter went off to college she demands and expects this whenever she returns to visit. —Mac

Oops! A bit vague about the shrimp. The uncooked shrimp is mixed in the cooked pasta along with the spinach mixture.

Looks great, and does the shrimp go in prior to baking?
