stuffed pasta shells
I wanted a hearty meal tonight and I didn't want to mess around. We had grilled basil beef, stuffed pasta shells and leftover blue cheese pear salad with ginger pear coffee cake for dessert. When I told my husband we were having a hearty dinner he responded, "That means it has sauce and cheese." And meat!!! This was a nice basic recipe. If I want my kids to eat it then I'd better omit the spinach next time.
stuffed pasta shells (allrecipes.com)
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1 (12 ounce) package jumbo pasta shells, cooked and drained
1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce or use homemade!
Combine cheeses and spinach; stuff into shells. Arrange in a greased 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Pour spaghetti sauce over the shells. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until heated through.
What I have to say- next time I'll add a little garlic powder and oregano to the cheese mixture.
