Como fazer Baked Stuffed Pasta Shells
- Bring 8 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add jumbo pasta shells and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain immediately and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
- Gently place the cooked shells open-side down on paper towels to drain excess water.
- In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 egg, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well.
- Reserve 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese for topping.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Spread a thin layer (about 1/2 cup) of your favorite spaghetti sauce in the bottom of a 12x9x2 inch baking dish.
- Spoon the cheese mixture into each pasta shell. Place the filled shells open-side up in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the remaining spaghetti sauce (about 2 cups) evenly over the stuffed shells.
- Loosely cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted and lightly browned.
- Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes of baking.
- Sprinkle the reserved 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese over the top.
- Bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown.
- Garnish with fresh chopped basil before serving.
