Ingredients:

Serving

1 (12 oz) box jumbo pasta shells
3 cups low-fat ricotta cheese
12 oz reduced-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
3/4 cup reduced-fat parmesan cheese, grated
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 tsp salt
2 tsp parsley
3/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp pepper
3 cups spaghetti sauce

Directions:

Cook noodles according to directions on box.
Combine all other ingredients except spaghetti sauce.
Fill each shell with about 2 tbsp cheese mixture.
Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Spread small amount of spaghetti sauce on bottom of pan.
Place filled shells in a single layer in pan.
Cover with remaining sauce.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 35 minutes.
For freezing: after shells are stuffed with the cheese mixture, place on a cookie sheet and freeze individually. Once frozen you can place in a freezer bag. When ready to use just remove the amount you need and follow the recipe. The cooking time may need to be extended up to 1 hour if the shells are frozen.
