INGREDIENTS
100g Whole Wheat Pasta Shells (dry)
2/3 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese (~160g)
2 cups Fresh Spinach, chopped
1 cup Marinara Tomato Sauce
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
4 oz Cooked Diced Chicken Breast
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the whole wheat pasta shells according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, chopped fresh spinach, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in the diced chicken breast to create a protein-packed filling.
Mix a portion of the marinara tomato sauce into the ricotta mixture for extra moisture and flavor.
Stuff each cooked pasta shell generously with the ricotta-spinach-chicken mixture.
Spread a thin layer of the remaining marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish, then arrange the stuffed shells in the dish.
Drizzle a little extra sauce over the top of the shells and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until the dish is heated through and the cheese is slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your protein-packed stuffed shells!
