INGREDIENTS
1 serving Jumbo Pasta Shells (about 120g cooked)
0.67 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese (approx. 150g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
0.5 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
0.25 cup Shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella (28g)
1 Egg White (33g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the jumbo pasta shells in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, fresh spinach, and egg white. Stir until evenly mixed and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
Stuff each pasta shell with the ricotta-spinach mixture and arrange them in the baking dish.
Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the stuffed shells and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly on top.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
Allow the dish to cool slightly before serving, and enjoy your creamy, protein-packed meal.
