INGREDIENTS
2 Jumbo Pasta Shells (approx. 50g total)
3/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese (approx. 185g)
1 cup Cooked Spinach (approx. 180g)
1 Large Egg White (approx. 33g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (approx. 125g)
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (approx. 5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the jumbo pasta shells according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, cooked spinach, and egg white. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Gently stuff each cooked shell with the ricotta and spinach mixture, ensuring an even distribution.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a small baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish.
Top the shells with the remaining marinara sauce and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese on top is slightly golden and the dish is heated through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
