Try my creamy pesto pasta bake. This easy pasta recipe is a riff off of the famous TikTok feta pasta.
Prepare the sauce:
Grab the prepared baking dish and add the cream cheese to the bottom of the dish.
Next, add the diced shallots, pesto, chopped garlic, olive oil and salt.
Bake uncovered for 25 minutes.
Remove the cheese mixture from the oven and begin to stir in the heavy cream. Once the sauce is creamy and smooth, add the cooked pasta.
Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in the sauce.
Top with grated parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, arugula and a few turns of cracked black pepper.
Serve hot!
