How to Make Spinach Sausage Stuffed Pasta Shells
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cook 1 pound jumbo pasta shells according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water; drain again.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 pound Italian sausage (removed from casings), 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 clove garlic, minced, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
- Fill each pasta shell with approximately 3 tablespoons of the sausage and spinach mixture.
- Arrange the filled shells in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Pour 1 (24 ounce) jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce over the pasta shells.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
- **To freeze unbaked:** Arrange filled shells in a freezer-safe container or bag before adding sauce. Freeze for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen, adding an extra 15-20 minutes to the cooking time. **To freeze baked:** Allow to cool completely before freezing. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
