Carefully spoon the ricotta and spinach mixture into each of the cooked pasta shells.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce at the bottom of a small baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells in the dish and drizzle the remaining sauce over the top.
Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella evenly over the shells.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and gently bubbly.
