INGREDIENTS
3 whole wheat jumbo pasta shells (approx. 45g total)
3/4 cup low-fat ricotta cheese (187.5g)
1 cup fresh spinach
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
Salt and pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the pasta shells in boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese, fresh spinach, egg white, minced garlic, dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Fill each pasta shell with the ricotta-spinach mixture and place them in a lightly greased baking dish.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the stuffed shells for extra flavor and a golden topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the filling is set and the tops are slightly golden.
Remove from the oven, let cool briefly, and serve warm.
