Cheese Stuffed Shells

Ingredients:

24 jumbo pasta shells, uncooked

1 (16 oz.) container part-skim ricotta cheese

1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated

1 egg, scrambled

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp dried basil

1/4 tsp onion powder

1/4 tsp dried parsley

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 (24 oz) jar spaghetti sauce (or see my recipe)

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated

Directions:

Cook pasta according to package directions (par-cook as it will bake more in the oven); drain completely and allow to cool.  Meanwhile mix together the next 10 ingredients until well combined.  Place filled shells in a large baking dish; cover with spaghetti sauce and cheeses.  Bake covered in aluminum foil for 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and pasta is fully cooked.   Serves 8.
