INGREDIENTS
6 jumbo whole wheat pasta shells (~150g)
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese (~125g)
1 cup fresh spinach (~30g)
1 large egg white (~33g)
1/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese (~28g)
1/2 cup low-sugar marinara sauce (~125g)
1 clove minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the jumbo whole wheat pasta shells in boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, chopped fresh spinach, egg white, minced garlic, and dried oregano. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix until smooth.
Stuff each pasta shell generously with the spinach and ricotta mixture.
Spread a thin layer of low-sugar marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish and spoon additional marinara sauce over the top.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly over the assembly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
