Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Shells

My mom always made awesome stuffed shells. I decided to try it for myself. I used spinach and also did red sauce for the husband and since I don't like red sauces, Alfredo for me. My husband gave them two thumbs up and literally ate every bite of leftovers.

Ingredients:
One box of jumbo shells
1 32oz container of Ricotta cheese
1bag of frozen chopped spinach
1 8oz block of mozzarella cheese
1 8oz block of Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp dried parsley
2 eggs beaten
Salt and pepper
Choice of sauce







Directions:
Boil shells until al dente. Drain water and set aside to cool
Mix eggs, ricotta. Parmesan salt and pepper and parsley together in a large bowl.
Add spinach and mix to combine.
Fill each shell with the mixture.
Place shells in a 9x13 baking dish. I added a little sauce on the bottom, placed the shells in then covered them in sauce.
Slice the mozzarella in 1/2 inch pieces and place on top of the stuffed shells.
Bake at 350 for 40-50 mins until the sauce is bubbly. Enjoy!!
