1

Heat oven to 375ºF. Rinse spinach with cold water to separate; drain thoroughly. In small bowl, mix mozzarella, cottage and Parmesan cheeses.
2

In large skillet, cook beef and garlic over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain.
3

In ungreased 2-quart casserole or 11x7-inch glass baking dish, mix beef mixture, spinach, uncooked pasta, sauce mix and hot water. Spoon cheese mixture evenly over top.
4

Bake uncovered 40 to 50 minutes or until top is golden brown and sauce is bubbly.

Expert Tips

Success : Using paper towels to blot the spinach after you drain it is a good way to absorb any remaining moisture so the mixture won't be too thin.
Substitution : No fresh garlic? Use 1/8 teaspoon dried minced garlic instead.
