INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Jumbo Pasta Shells (dry)
3/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Shredded Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the jumbo pasta shells in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside in a large mixing bowl.
In the bowl with the pasta, mix in the part-skim ricotta cheese and fresh spinach. Stir gently until the spinach begins to wilt and is evenly distributed.
Add garlic powder, dried basil, salt, and pepper to the mixture. Combine thoroughly to ensure the flavors meld.
Transfer the pasta and ricotta mixture into a lightly greased baking dish, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and starting to get a light golden color.
Remove from the oven and let sit for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your creamy spinach ricotta baked shells!
