  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach
  • 15 oz ricotta cheese

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • nutmeg a pinch (optional)

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium pot over medium heat, combine crushed tomatoes and minced garlic. Simmer for about 10 minutes.

  8. Bake covered for 25 minutes; uncover and bake an additional 5 minutes until golden.
