Cheesy Spinach Casserole image

A friend of mine made this and gave me the recipe. It is very adaptable to whatever your tastes are and can easily be made to fit your lifestyle and needs! I used rotini in this recipe but the original called for spaghetti (that didn't make sense to me). You could really use any sort of pasta you have on hand! I bought precooked chicken strips to use in the dish and it helped keep the dish speedy and tasty!
