Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Oil a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. 

  2. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, sun-dried tomatoes, 3 tablespoons of the oil left in the jar, spinach, garlic, basil, oregano, red wine, and 1 + ½ cups of water to the baking dish. Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Add the dry pasta, fontina cheese, asiago cheese, and parmesan cheese, tossing to coat. Push the pasta down gently to submerge it.
