INGREDIENTS
4 Jumbo Pasta Shells (~60g total)
0.58 cup Low-fat Ricotta Cheese (~140g)
1 cup Fresh Baby Spinach (30g)
0.25 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
2 Egg Whites (66g)
0.5 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the jumbo pasta shells according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese, egg whites, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and fresh spinach. Stir until the mixture is evenly blended. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder if desired.
Carefully stuff each cooked pasta shell with the ricotta-spinach mixture. Arrange the stuffed shells in a lightly greased baking dish.
Pour the marinara sauce evenly over the stuffed shells, ensuring they are well-covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese filling is heated through.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your creamy, protein-packed pasta dish!
