Spinach Stuffed Shells

I'm sure everyone has a good recipe for stuffed shells, but I just made these tonight and wanted to share. I make it with low-fat ricotta cheese and 2% mozzarella to make it a little more figure friendly. This is a great way to get spinach in kids, I'm learning! :o) E loves these.

1 box jumbo shells

2 cups marinara sauce (I use Shana's recipe for meat sauce)

10 oz. box frozen spinach, thawed and water squeezed out

1 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 egg

1/2 tsp dried oregano

salt and pepper to taste

Cook shells according to package directions; be sure to leave al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water. Mix together spinach, ricotta, parmesan, garlic, egg, oregano, salt and pepper.

Preheat oven to 350. Spray bottom of a 13x9 inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spoon spinach and cheese mixture into shells and place in bottom of the dish. Pour sauce over shells and top with cheese. Bake for 35 minutes until cheese is melty and sauce is bubbly.
