INGREDIENTS
4 jumbo pasta shells (approx. 50g total)
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese (124g)
1 cup chopped fresh spinach (30g)
2 egg whites (66g total)
1/2 cup marinara sauce (125g)
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the jumbo pasta shells in salted boiling water until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese, egg whites, and chopped spinach. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and evenly mixed.
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a lightly greased baking dish.
Stuff each cooked pasta shell generously with the ricotta-spinach mixture and place them in the baking dish in a single layer.
Pour the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the stuffed shells, ensuring they are well covered.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese has melted slightly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
