INGREDIENTS
6 jumbo pasta shells
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup marinara sauce
1 large egg white
1 clove garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
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 to cool slightly.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for a minute.
In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg white, and the sautéed spinach and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Stuff each pasta shell with the creamy spinach and ricotta mixture.
Place the stuffed shells in a baking dish and top with marinara sauce. Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the dish is heated through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
