Meat, Cheese, & Spinach Stuffed Shells
12 oz whole wheat Jumbo shells
1 egg, beaten
1 small onion, chopped
1 container (15 oz) fat free ricotta cheese

1 lb 96/4 ground beef
1 cup part skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup fresh parsley or 2 Tbsp dried parsley
1/4 cup fresh basil
3 cups Classico Garlic Tomato sauce

Cook shells for about 15 minutes. While pasta is cooking, chop and sauté onion with cooking spray or olive oil in medium pan for about 2-3 minutes. Add in the ground beef and brown until no longer pink. Drain pasta and set aside. In a medium bowl, beat eggs lightly. Then stir in ricotta, Mozzarella, spinach, parsley, 1/2 of the quarter cup basil. Once cheese and herbs are mixed together, stir in onions and meat. Spoon meat and cheese mixture into each shell and arrange shells on baking dish. Top with tomato sauce and sprinkle with parmesan cheese and remaining chopped basil. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
