1 splash non-stick cooking spray
4 cups water, for boiling
2 cups rotini
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, minced
1/2 onion, diced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup milk
1/2 packet dry leek soup mix

1
In a large pot bring water to a boil. Add rotini and cook until al dente, about 7 minutes. Drain, without rinsing and set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium sauce pan heat butter over medium heat and add garlic, shallot and onion. Cook just until tender, about 3 to 5 minutes, being careful not to burn garlic.
3
Add flour and whisk while cooking about 3 minutes. Pour in milk whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and let simmer until slightly thickened, about another 3 minutes.
5
Add spinach, mushrooms, nutmeg, salt and pepper and cook until wilted and tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
6
In a large bowl combine pasta, sauce mix, ricotta and mozzarella; stir until evenly distributed.
7
Pour into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish.
8
In a small bowl combine wheat germ and bread crumbs and mix. Evenly sprinkle over casserole and top with diced butter.
