INGREDIENTS
20 whole wheat shells
2 cups fresh spinach
3 cups part-skim ricotta
2 eggs
1 cup part-skim mozzarella
1 cup marinara sauce
2 garlic cloves
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat shells according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta, eggs, chopped fresh spinach, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Gently fold in the part-skim mozzarella into the ricotta mixture.
Stuff each cooked shell generously with the ricotta-spinach blend.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish in a single layer.
Pour the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the shells.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 10 minutes until bubbly and slightly golden on top.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
