INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Jumbo Pasta Shells (dry)
1/2 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 large Egg Whites
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 clove Garlic
1/4 small Onion
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta shells in a large pot of boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, fresh spinach (chopped finely), egg whites, minced garlic, diced onion, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
Gently toss the cooked shells in the ricotta-spinach mixture until each shell is well coated. Be careful not to break them.
Lightly spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in a baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish, then drizzle the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the sauce is bubbly.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your balanced and comforting meal!
