INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Jumbo Pasta Shells (≈140g)
1/3 cup Part-skim Ricotta Cheese (≈80g)
1/4 cup shredded Part-skim Mozzarella Cheese (≈28g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (≈30g)
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey (≈85g)
1/2 cup Marinara Tomato Sauce (≈125g)
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the jumbo pasta shells until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until browned. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the fresh spinach into the skillet with turkey and allow it to wilt slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese with the cooked turkey and spinach mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Stuff each cooked pasta shell with the ricotta mixture and arrange them in a baking dish.
Pour the marinara tomato sauce evenly over the stuffed shells and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the dish is heated through.
Allow the shells to cool slightly before serving.
