INGREDIENTS
4 whole wheat jumbo pasta shells (80g total)
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese (125g)
1 cup fresh spinach (30g)
1 whole egg
1 large egg white
1/2 cup marinara sauce (125g)
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
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 medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, fresh spinach, whole egg, and egg white until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Gently spoon the ricotta-spinach mixture into each cooked pasta shell ensuring they are well filled.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish in a single layer.
Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the shells, then sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the pasta edges begin to crisp.
Allow the dish to cool slightly before serving to enjoy the creamy, savory flavors.
