Ingredients
  

  • 20 jumbo pasta shells
  • 15 oz ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Cook the Shells: Boil the jumbo pasta shells in salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup of mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, egg, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Stuff the Shells: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Fill each cooked shell with the cheese mixture and place them in the dish.
  • Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the stuffed shells and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Serve: Garnish with chopped basil if desired and serve hot.
