Number Of Ingredients 11

Salt
1 pound spinach, trimmed
1 pound large pasta shells
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
1 pound ricotta cheese
4 ounces coarsely grated mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt. Boil spinach until bright green, about 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain. Add shells to boiling water; cook until slightly underdone. Drain. Toss with 1 teaspoon oil. Set aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil and the garlic in a large skillet over medium-low heat until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes; cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened slightly, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Squeeze spinach to release excess water; coarsely chop. Stir together with cheeses and egg. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Stuff each shell with about 2 tablespoons cheese mixture. Spread 1 1/2 cups tomato sauce in a 9-by-13 inch baking dish. Arrange shells in dish; cover with more sauce, reserving some for serving. Bake 25 minutes. Serve with remaining sauce.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover pasta. I always have leftover pasta in my fridge, so this is a great way to use it up.

This dish was easy to make and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of pasta. I used jumbo shells, but I think smaller shells would be better.

I'm not a big fan of ricotta cheese, but I really enjoyed this dish. The other cheeses balanced out the ricotta and made it very flavorful.

I made this dish for my family and they loved it! The shells were a little bit overcooked, but the filling was so good that it didn't matter.
