INGREDIENTS
1 serving jumbo pasta shells (approx. 6 shells, 75g)
½ cup low-fat ricotta cheese (124g)
1 cup fresh spinach, raw (30g)
2 egg whites (66g)
½ cup marinara sauce (125g)
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (10g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the jumbo pasta shells according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese, fresh spinach (chopped if desired), and egg whites. Stir until well blended.
Season the ricotta-spinach mixture lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Gently stuff each pasta shell with the creamy ricotta-spinach filling.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in an oven-safe baking dish.
Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish, then pour the remaining marinara sauce evenly over them.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top of the sauced shells.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
