Gavin's Super Green Ricotta Bake

Title: Serves 2

Healthy Vegetarian Pasta Bake - Made by Gavin with Love

Turn dinnertime into something everyone looks forward to with Gavin’s Super Green Ricotta Bake,  a wholesome vegetarian pasta dish that balances nutrition with indulgent flavour. This delicious bake layers nutrient-rich kale, spinach, and silverbeet with orecchiette pasta, ricotta, Napolitana sauce, and Gavin’s homemade béchamel, finished with a golden topping of Parmesan and Provolone. Each spoonful delivers that cheesy, satisfying comfort food feel, while quietly packing in three types of greens! 

Bake in the oven straight from frozen in 30–45 minutes, this generous 800g dish easily feeds two as a complete dinner. It’s a recipe passed down from Gavin’s mum, refined with his fine dining chef background, and loved for its ability to make vegetables taste irresistible. The orecchiette pasta captures the sauces beautifully, and the balance of cheeses creates a creamy texture that feels like a treat while still nourishing the body. Whether you’re looking for healthy meal prep, a vegetarian dinner the whole family will eat, or just a delicios pasta bake with a little extra goodness inside, this one ticks all the boxes.

About Your Cook

Hi, I'm Gavin!

Growing up, I was always cooking and creating in the kitchen with my mother, growing fresh produce in our garden, experimenting with dishes at home, and was brought up eating kale, spinach and humous before they were well-known foods!

I have cooked in some of the best fine dining restaurants in Australia, but at home, and as a father of three, my food is all about comfort food that is unpretentious, wholesome, nutritious, and that the whole family can share. I love cooking with the best seasonal and local fresh produce and being able to transform this into something healthy and super tasty for everyone to enjoy.

FAQ's

The leafy greens are finely folded into the ricotta and béchamel, then layered with pasta and sauce. The cheese and baking process mellow the flavour, so the vegetables blend right in – most kids don’t even notice them. Parents tell us it’s their go-to “hidden veggies” dish.

It freezes beautifully. You can bake straight from frozen or defrost and heat for a quicker cook. Once baked, leftovers can be portioned, stored, and reheated without drying out – the béchamel and cheese ensure it stays creamy.

Ricotta brings creaminess, Parmesan adds savoury sharpness, and Provolone melts into a golden, slightly stretchy topping.

    Wonderful

    This was delicious. One of THE best frozen meals I have ever eaten. So tasty - loved the spicing, the consistency of the meat, the sauce - everything about this dish was great. Thank you so much. I could taste that it had been made by a real person - and this real person really enjoyed it.
