This is an easy meal. It mixes up in no time. Just have your kids help you stuff the shells. It's fun!
Cheese Filling
4 cups ricotta cheese
2 cups mozzarella, shredded (1 cup for filling, 1 cup for topping)
1 egg, beaten
1 pkg. frozen, chopped spinach, thawed and as much water as possible squeezed out
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sea salt
Fresh ground black pepper
1 jar of your favorite marinara sauce
1 box of large pasta shells, cooked
Mix all filling ingredients. Spoon a tablespoon or so of the cheese filling into each shell. Pour about half the jar of sauce into the bottom of a baking dish that will fit all of the shells. Place the filled shells on top of the sauce. Cover with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted on top and the cheese filling is warmed through.
