Growing up & being raised #Sicilian 🇮🇹#Italian we ate ALOT of pasta! 👌🤣 But we were poor and never could really afford to do the "stuffed pastas." 🤔 Every once in a while we had lasagna but that was about it 🙅🏻‍♀️ and only about 4 times a year! 🤦🏻‍♀️😆 Dont get me wrong, I love average "spaghetti" enough, sure... 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I realized long ago that MY personal One True Love, lied with #stuffedpastas & #filledpastas FOR SURE! 😍🤤😍 Seriously. #ravioli #tortellini #manicotti #stuffedshells #MyItalian

Cooking Instructions

2 hr

1

Preheat oven to 425°. Begin by boiling water & cooking your manicotti noodles. Drain. Set aside. (*Tip- Lightly coat noodles in olive oil and toss, in order to avoid sticking together and ripping apart later.🤷🏻‍♀️)
2

Next, saute your spinach and yellow onion with cooking oil until slightly softened. (*Tip- Add a pinch of the spices here for some magic!🤩)
3

When ready, combine spinach, onions, egg, mozzarella & parmesan cheese, & spices in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Also coat the bottom of your baking/casserole dishes with a thin layer of your favorite spaghetti sauce!
4

After that, stuff each shell generously with mixture and place in rows and/or columns inside casserole/baking dishes.
5

Finally, cover stuffed pasta rolls with remaining spaghetti sauce & top with shredded Cheddar & Monterey cheese.
6

Cover with foil & Bake for 45-60mins or until cheese is melted nicely and rolls are hot all the way through.🤠👌👍 Serve & Enjoy!

Made this recipe in #stuffedshells instead of #manicotti this last time. 👏😋👏 I LOVE Pasta! ❤️🇮🇹🍝 Filled & Stuffed Pastas are my absolute Favorite! 😎👍👍 Another thing I really enjoy about pasta is that there are SO many different shapes & varieties that you could try a different one with each meal & you still probably will never try them all!!! 😄😏😆 Cheers to YOU! #pasta 🍷

My aunt always made this dish for family get togethers and it's always been a huge hit! I was surprised to see cottage cheese was in this, but mixed with Italian spices and ricotta cheese, you can't even tell. Enjoy!
