INGREDIENTS
3.5 ounces (approx. 100g) Whole Wheat Jumbo Pasta Shells
1/2 cup (125g) Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1 cup Cooked Spinach (approx. 180g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 Large Egg Whites
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Clove Minced Garlic
1 tsp Dried Basil
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 low-fat ricotta, cooked spinach, egg whites, minced garlic, and dried basil. Stir until well blended.
Carefully stuff each cooked shell with the ricotta-spinach mixture.
Spread half of the marinara sauce in the bottom of a lightly greased baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells over the sauce.
Top the shells with the remaining marinara sauce and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, until the filling is set and the sauce is bubbly.
Allow the shells to cool for a few minutes before serving.
