Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the ziti pasta according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked ziti, wilted spinach, marinara sauce, and ricotta cheese. Mix until well combined.
Transfer the mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread it evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the ziti mixture.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden brown.
Remove from oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
