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!
