Stuffed Spinach Pasta Shells





This is another one of our favorite recipes. I like it because it is vegetarian, so it's pretty inexpensive to make and cuts down on how much meat we eat.

It's pretty simple.

Here's what you need for a 9 x 13 pan:
 
26-28 jumbo pasta shells
 
2 boxes of frozen, chopped spinach (Thawed. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible)
4 eggs
16 oz italian blend shredded cheese
2 c. ricotta cheese
1 1/2 jars pasta sauce


Cook the shells, run them under cool water, and place on towel to dry.



Mix together the ricotta, eggs, spinach and ital cheese. (Reserve 1/2 c. of italian cheese.)




Stuff the shells. Place in greased pan.



Pour sauce in top and sprinkle 1/2 c. reserved cheese.




 Bake, covered at 350 for 40 minutes or until heated through.

  3. Elyssa, I was hoping you would also link this recipe up! I'm totally pinning it - I never thought of adding Spinach to stuffed shells - I don't know why, but I definitely love the idea :) Thanks for sharing this at D2f!
