A great lowfat version! This is rich, creamy and your family will love it. I make it without meat as well. It's great either way.

Steps:
- In an 8 quart pot, bring water to a boil and cook shells according to package directions.
- Drain and cool immediately with cold water.
- Drain and place open side down on paper towels.
- Meanwhile brown ground turkey with onion and garlic; drain fat.
- Combine the next 8 ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, combine ground turkey and the cheese mixture.
- Reserve the 1/4 cup of Mozzarella.
- Place a thin layer of spaghetti sauce into the bottom of a 12 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Spoon the cheese/meat mixture into each pasta shell and place open side up, in a single layer, in prepared pan. I don't usually use all 12 ounces of noodles.
- Pour the remaining sauce (RESERVE 1 Cup Sauce) over the stuffed shells.
- Loosely cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
- During last 5 minutes of baking, remove foil and sprinkle remaining Mozzarella cheese on top.
- Bake 5 more minutes.
- Garnish with fresh chopped basil. I like to have a side of warm spaghetti sauce to drizzle over; especially for left-overs.
