Cavatappi With Spinach, Beans, and Asiago Cheese image

For a simple dish, this contains many healthful ingredients, plus the flavors are complex. If you toss the spinach and Asiago cheese while the pasta is still warm, the spinach will wilt and the cheese will soften. When this happens, the flavors blend and become more pungent. This is peasant food at its best.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I loved this dish! The Asiago cheese really balanced out the flavor of the spinach.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and red pepper flakes next time.
