STUFFED SHELLS WITH GROUND TURKEY AND RICOTTA CHEESE
Left over ricotta cheese led me to making this recipe. Instead of the basic marinara sauce I made a bechamel sauce. Now if you are looking for a low fat recipe - this is not it. This is rich and creamy and delicious!

Steps:
- Prepare bechamel sauce. I use recipe #117939. After the straining and the sauce was still warm add mozzarella cheese. Keep warm.
- Cook shells to al dente and let cool to touch.
- Saute onion, garlic and turkey until no longer pink. Add frozen spinach, nutmeg, pepper and generous amount of salt.
- In a medium bowl mix warm turkey mixture with ricotta cheese. At this point taste and adjust seasoning.
- Cover the bottom of Pyrex dish with some bechamel sauce.
- Stuff shells, place in dish and cover with remaining sauce.
- Bake at 350 until heated through.
- Enjoy!
