Popeye Pasta

Kids

9 months +

Joshua loves this pasta, he still has it now at 18 months old and it's full of things that are good for him so it's great.  I always use double the ingredients and freeze it in large pots.

30g mini pasta shapes
200g fresh spinach
15g butter
2 tbsp milk
2 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
2 tbsp cheddar cheese, grated

Cook the pasta according to the pack instructions.  Wash the spinach and cook with just the water on its leaves in a pan over a low heat, or microwave until tender.
Gently press out the excess water.  Melt the butter in a small frying pan and saute the cooked spinach.  Combine the spinach with the milk and cheeses and chop finely in a blender or use a hand held blender.  Mix with the cooked pasta.
