What a great dish for Meatless Monday or any day of the week…You’ll never miss the meat in this dreamy, cheesy dish. These little shells are stuffed with a combination of reduced-fat cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, spinach, onions and garlic. For ease, they’re topped with my favorite jarred pasta sauce. The skinny for each serving of 3 shells is 273 calories, 5 grams of fat and 7 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. Just yummy!
Ингредиенты
- 12 jumbo pasta shells (4 ounces), I used Barilla jumbo shells

- 1 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1¼ cups onion, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced (~2 cloves)
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1¼ cups reduced-fat cottage cheese

- Fresh ground pepper, to taste
- 1 egg white, lightly beaten

Инструкции
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9â baking dish with cooking spay and set aside.
- Cook shells in a large pot of boiling water, stirring often and cook until just tender, according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
- In the meantime, in a blender, add ½ slice bread, including crust. Grind into crumbs. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onions, garlic and cook, stirring often, until onions are soft. Stir in thawed spinach and mix well. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine cottage cheese, bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Mix well. Stir in the cooked onions and spinach. Stir in the egg white. Season with Italian seasonings and fresh ground pepper, to taste.
- Stuff each of the cooked shells with a generous 2 tablespoons of the cottage cheese mixture. Spread ½ cup pasta sauce in the bottom of a 9â baking dish. Arrange the stuffed shells in a single layer, 3 rows of 5 shells. Top the shells with remaining 1 cup sauce and sprinkle with the remaining 1½ tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, until the top is golden and the shells are heated through. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
