Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a 9X13 baking dish with cooking spray. Cook 12 ounces jumbo pasta shells according to the package directions and set aside.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of water and 8 ounces spinach and cook until the spinach has wilted and the water has evaporated.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups ricotta cheese, ½ cup grated parmesan cheese, 3 cloves garlic, 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Once everything is well combined, stir in the spinach.
  4. Pour 1 cup of the 3 cups Marinara Sauce into the baking dish. Stuff each shell with the ricotta filling, about a tablespoon, and arrange them in a single layer, filling side up, in the pan.
  5. Pour the remaining marinara sauce around and on the shells. Sprinkle the 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese over the shells and bake for about 25-30 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and browning.
