ITALIAN-STUFFED SHELLS
1 box jumbo pasta shells, cooked and drained
1 (15-ounce) carton Ricotta Cheese
1 box frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed and drained
well
½ cup grated parmesan
1 egg
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
2 jars of your favorite spaghetti sauce (I love Bertolli
Olive Oil & Garlic)
1 (8-ounce) package grated mozzarella cheese
In a large bowl, mix together ricotta, spinach, parmesan,
egg, garlic salt, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper. Stir well.
Stuff each shell with a tablespoon of cheese mixture (you will have
about a dozen shells left over). Pour ½ jar
of the sauce onto the bottom of a greased 13x9x2 oven-proof dish and then place the stuffed shells on top of
the sauce. Pour all but about a half of
jar of remaining sauce evenly over your stuffed shells. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle mozzarella
cheese over the sauce . Return to the
oven and bake 10 to 15 minutes more or just until the cheese is melted. Let sit about 5-10 minutes before serving. Sometimes I just serve a nice salad with
this, and other times, I serve it with grilled chicken or grilled Italian
sausage. Enjoy!
