This is one of my favourite dishes, but I hadn't realized I actually have a recipe for it! Easy, tasty, and the kids love it too.
I use 100 g of cream cheese instead of the cream, and I often use frozen spinach. Possible additions (not all at the same time please): some thyme, some garlic, some white wine or a drop of vinegar, mushrooms. I usually serve it with a simple tomato salad.

I get the idea behind this - a kind of creamed spinach with blue cheese and pasta - and it's a good one. But I'm not a fan of unthickened cream sauces, which this was. Probably a better dish would be to make a proper creamed spinach with blue cheese and serve it over pasta.
