Stuffed Shells

Stuffed Shells
1 box (14-16 oz.) shell shaped pasta
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, divided
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 egg
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. Italian herb seasoning
1 tsp. parsley
1 jar marinara

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook pasta shells according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, combine ricotta, half of the mozzarella, parmesan, egg, bread crumbs and seasonings. Mix thoroughly. Spread 1/3 of the marinara in the bottom of a 13x9 baking dish. When shells are cooled stuff them with cheese mixture, using a large table spoon. Place in baking dish on top of the marinara. Cover stuffed shells with the remainder of the marinara. Bake in oven about 20 minutes. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese and cook an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

Serve with salad and breadsticks.
