1 tablespoon garlic, minced
Red pepper flakes to taste
2 cups (16 ounces) marinara sauce

Nonstick spray
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, mix spinach, ricotta, parmesan and garlic in a bowl. Spray a baking pan with nonstick spray. Lay noodles out and spread a small amount of the cheese mixture the length of the noodle. Kick up the spice by sprinkling with red pepper flakes. Add more for a bigger kick! Roll the noodle up and place in the baking pan, open end down. Repeat with all the noodles. Cover the rolls with marinara sauce and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and basil. Bake for 40 minutes.
