Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450℉.
- In a large oven safe skillet add the ground meat and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the meat is no longer pink. Drain the meat if you need to. Add the garlic, salt, pepper and dry herbs. Stir to combine and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Add crushed tomatoes, water and pasta to the skillet. Make sure there's enough water so that the pasta is fully submerged. Cook until pasta is al dente about 10 to 12 minutes. Stir the pasta occasionally to keep the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the skillet.
- Remove the skillet from heat. Dollop the ricotta cheese over the top then top with Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese. Place the skillet in the oven and bake for about 5 to 10 minutes until cheese has melted and it's slightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil.

Notes
- Pasta Choice: Shells were used in this recipe, but feel free to substitute with any pasta of similar size. Penne or rotini would work well too.
- Cheese Variations: If ricotta isn't your favorite, you can use cottage cheese as a substitute. The blend of Parmesan and mozzarella gives a nice flavor, but feel free to experiment with your favorite cheeses.
- Herb Flexibility: Dried herbs were used here, but fresh herbs can add an extra punch of flavor. Just multiply the amount by three when using fresh herbs.
- Make it Vegetarian: Want to skip the meat? You can replace the ground beef with a plant-based meat substitute or even some sautéed mushrooms for a vegetarian twist.
- Storage Tips: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave, adding a little water if needed to keep the pasta from drying out.
