Ingredients
  • 1 Box Large Pasta Shells
  • 11/2 cup Pasta Sauce (about 1 can)
  • 16 oz Ricotta Cheese
  • 1 cup Baby Spinach chopped
  • ½ cup Fresh Basil
  • ½ cup Grape Tomatoes chopped
  • 1 cup Mozzarella
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • Salt and Pepper
  • ½ cup Parmesan
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 and prepare a baking dish with nonstick baking spray.
  2. Boil a large pot of water for the pasta shells and cook them al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain them and lay them on wax or parchment paper to cool long enough so you can handle them.
  3. Meanwhile, spread ¾ cup pasta sauce in the baking dish and set the other pasta sauce aside. Set the Parmesan cheese aside for the top of the pasta. Then, combine the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl.
  4. Fill the pasta shells with 11/2-2 tbls of the ricotta mixture and place them on top of the sauce in the baking pan.
  5. Top with reserved sauce and Parmesan. Cover with foil and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and cook for 5-10 minutes more to crisp up the edges of the pasta if desired.
