Katie Kirkham brought this over after our last baby was born and it made serious waves. Simple, fast, and really tasty, we've made it several times since and dubbed it "The Katie". I've used it to feed my army of extended family, so you might want to halve it for yours. Original is from Epicurious. Specific amounts are listed below from that recipe, but, as usual, I never measure and just throw stuff in until it looks good.
3/4lb hot Italian sausages, casings removed (I use 1lb bulk Italian, Katie uses Gr Turkey)
1 medium onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 28oz can diced peeled tomatoes
1/4c pesto
10oz cooked ziti or penne pasta (~3c)
8c spinach leaves (~2/3 of 10oz pckg)
6oz mozzarella cheese, cubed
1c grated Parmesan (~3oz)
Cook sausage, onion, and garlic in large saucepan over medium high heat until sausage is cooked through, breaking it up as you go (about 10 min). Add tomatoes with juices. Simmer until sauce thickens slightly, stirring occasionally, about 10 mins. Stir in pesto. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before continuing)
Preheat oven to 375. Lightly oil 9x13 dish (I don't). Combine pasta, spinach, mozzarella and 1/3c Parmesan in large bowl. Stir in hot tomato sauce (I just throw the other stuff in the big saucepan). Transfer to baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining 2/3c Parmesan. Bake until sauce bubbles and cheeses melt, about 30 min.
