Easy Spinach Stuffed Shells


Course Dinner
Servings 7 servings

These Easy Stuffed Shells are a cozy Italian meal loaded with amazing flavors! A mix of ricotta, romano, and mozzarella cheeses bring this dish to life with a hint of spinach baked in a vibrant sauce!

Ingredients  

  • 21 jumbo pasta shells
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated romano cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 5 oz. frozen spinach thawed and drained
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 jar Bertolli Riserva Pasta Sauce
  • 8 oz. ball of mozzarella cheese shredded can also be used
  • basil for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spread a 1/4 cup of sauce on the bottom of a large cast iron pan and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water with a pinch of salt to a boil. Cook jumbo shells for 2 minutes less than package instructions suggest. Drain pasta.
  • While pasta is cooking, mix together ricotta, romano, egg, spinach, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Fill pasta shells with filling, making sure they're still able to close. Place filled shells open side down in the cast iron pan.
  • Once all shells are done, pour remaining pasta sauce over the shells and top with slices of mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 30 minutes or until cheese is melty and brown bubbles start to appear.
  • Garnish with basil and serve hot.
