-
1 Prepare the Ingredients
Mince garlic. Rinse artichokes. Keep croutons in bag and crush into coarse crumbs.
-
2 Cook the Pasta
Add pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente, 11-13 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Drain in a colander and set aside. Reserve pot; no need to wipe clean. While pasta cooks, cook spinach.
-
3 Cook the Spinach
Line a plate with a paper towel. Heat 1 tsp. olive oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes (to taste) to hot pan and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add spinach and stir often until just wilted, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to towel-lined plate and let sit 1-2 minutes to remove excess moisture.
-
4 Make the Sauce
Return pot used to cook pasta to medium heat. Add cream and pasta water and bring to a simmer. Stir often until reduced by half, 2-3 minutes. Remove pot from burner and stir in cream cheese and half the Parmesan (reserve remaining for topping pasta) until combined. Season with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Stir in cooked pasta, spinach, and artichokes until coated evenly in sauce.
-
5 Bake the Pasta
Transfer pasta mixture to prepared casserole dish and spread into an even layer. Top with remaining Parmesan and crouton crumbs. Bake until top is lightly browned, 8-10 minutes. Rest 5 minutes before serving.
-
6 Finish the Dish
Serve pasta family style straight from casserole dish.
