Clean Stuffed Shells

I love these! A high protein meal that isn't CHICKEN!!! Only problem that I had was that I couldn't find whole wheat shells... I was going to just put the filling on my plate with noodles and sauce over it, but we were having family over and I wanted to try my recipe out on them! No one ever noticed the healthy swap of cottage cheese for ricotta!

What you need:

• 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
• 1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp. dried oregano
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 3 cups canned low-sodium tomato sauce
• 1 pound of cooked jumbo shells

What you need to do:

1. Preheat over to 375.
2. Mix together cheeses, garlic powder, oregano and pepper
3. Spread a few spoonful of sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 baking pan
4. When cooked shells are cool enough to handle, fill each shell with the filling mixture and place in baking dish. When all shells are in the pan, spoon remaining tomato sauce over shells.
5. Cover pan and bake for 20 minutes

Each shell is about 50 calories... so 4 shells only 200 calories!!! ENJOY!
