INGREDIENTS
3 jumbo pasta shells
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 cup marinara sauce
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the jumbo pasta shells until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the shells cook, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and garlic powder, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until the spinach is just wilted.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese with the sautéed spinach. Stir gently until well mixed.
Stuff each pasta shell with the ricotta-spinach mixture and arrange them in a baking dish.
Pour the marinara sauce evenly over the stuffed shells.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until heated through and the edges of the shells begin to crisp.
Remove from the oven and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with a pinch of additional garlic powder or fresh basil.
