Ingredients
About 1/2 Crock-Pot Bolognese recipe
- 12 pasta shells cooked
For the Filling:
- 2 cups low fat cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Mozzarella cheese
- 1/3 cup prepared pesto
- salt and pepper to taste
- Extra cheeses for the top if desired
- parsley flakes for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Make Crockpot Bolognese Sauce according to directions.
- Spread about 1 1/2 cups of sauce into the bottom of your crockpot to serve as a base and a no-crunchy-or-burned-noodle-barrier. Set aside.
- For the filling, stir all ingredients together until combined. Spoon filling into cooked shells, stuffing evenly. Place into bottom of crockpot, onto that sauce.
- Spoon more sauce over the top of each shell and sprinkle with extra cheese if you feel so inclined.
- Cover and cook 1 1/2 hours on high or 3 hours on low OR until hot all the way through. Sprinkle with parsley flakes and serve.**Non-crockpot directions: Place shells into 9x13 baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until hot.
