INGREDIENTS
50 g Jumbo Pasta Shells (dry)
1/2 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 large Egg Whites
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 clove Minced Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Meanwhile, 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, fresh spinach, egg whites, minced garlic, and fresh basil. Stir until well incorporated. 
- Gently fold the cooked pasta shells into the ricotta mixture, ensuring each shell is well coated. Reserve a few shells for assembling, if necessary. 
- Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Carefully spoon the ricotta-spinach mixture into each pasta shell. 
- Arrange the stuffed shells in the baking dish, then pour the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the shells. 
- Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top of the dish. 
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling and the shells are heated through. 
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your healthy baked spinach and ricotta stuffed shells!
