Spinach & Ricotta Stuffed Shells

2 cups marinara - divided

cooking spray

2 1/2 c part-skim ricotta cheese

1/2 c grated parmesan or asiago

1/2 t onion powder

1/2 t oregano (you can add basil, rosemary, thyme...whatever)

1/4 t salt

1/4 t pepper

1 10 oz pkg frozen spinach (thawed and drained)

1 lg egg yolk

1 clove garlic, minced

24 cooked jumbo pasta shells

Preheat oven to 350.

Spray cooking spray in 13x9 pan. Spread 1/2 cups marinara.

Combine the ricotta and other ingredients (through garlic). Spoon the mixture into the shells and place shells in the pan. Top with the rest of the marinar. Cover and bake for 30 minutes.

Let me know if you need help with basic marinara - super easy and better if homemade to your taste. 

This is a great, light dinner - we serve it with sauteed vegies or a big salad.
