Add the pasta and spinach to the mushroom and onion skillet.  Mix to combine.  Add the mix to your casserole pan.

Sauce and seasoning

In large bowl, beat eggs. Stir in the tomato sauce, seasonings, and Parmesan cheese.  Pour the mix into the casserole pan.

Stir the sauce and eggs into the pasta.  Cover dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.  After 25 minutes, remove dish from oven and remove foil.  Sprinkle mozzarella over the top and cook 5 more minutes.
