- MAKES 4 SERVINGS. LACTO
- This pasta-shell filling doesn't rely on the usual cheese. Instead, white beans and shiitake mushrooms add in flavor instead of fat.
- Cook past shells according to package directions till barely al dente. Drain: rinse in cool water.
- Marinara sauce: Bring a medium saucepan of water to boil. Make a small incision with a knife in stem end of each tomato; blanch 30 seconds in boiling water. Drain; transfer to bowl of ice water. Slip off skins. Place tomatoes in a large sealable plastic bag; press down gently till they squash somewhat.
- (Don't mash completely.)
- Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat; saute/fry onion, carrots, celery and garlic 5 min. Stir in tomatoes, salt, pepper and oregano. Cover: cook 15 min. Remove from heat and strain, pressing vegetables to extract juices
- (don't crush). Reserve pressed vegetables for filling.
- Yields 2 c. sauce.
- Filling: Puree 1 1/2 c. beans in a food processor till creamy. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; saute/fry onion and mushrooms 5 min. Stir in pureed beans, reserved marinara vegetables and remaining c. whole beans.
- Season with cayenne, cumin and lemon juice. Remove from heat; set aside.
- Shells: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour marinara sauce into 9- by 9-inch baking pan. Fill each cooked shell with 1 heaping Tbsp. filling. Arrange shells in pan; bake 30 min uncovered.
- Vegetable: Just before shells are finished baking, toss spinach with cardamom and salt. Pour lemon juice into a high-sided skillet over medium heat; cook spinach till limp, about 3 min.
- To serve: Arrange a bed of spinach on each serving plate; top with 4 shells.
- Pour sauce from baking dish into a small saucepan. Stir in slurry; bring to boil. Stir till thickened and clear, about 30 seconds. Pour thickened sauce over pasta and spinach. Garnish with cheese.
- Makes 4 servings.
- HELPFUL HINT: When you make marinara sauce, make a double or possibly triple recipe.
- Dip out 2 1/2 c. per recipe before straining. Freeze in qt-size resealable plastic bags. Use within 6 months.
