I love pumpkin even in this unusual recipe. From Woman's Day magazine Ingredients:
1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
1 (16 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin |
1/2 cup dry italian seasoned breadcrumbs |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
36 jumbo-size pasta shells, cooked to firm stage,drained and cooled in a single layer |
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. Spoon a thin layer of spaghetti sauce in the bottom of a 13 by 9 inch baking dish.
2. Combine beaten egg with pumpkin, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and nutmeg.
3. Stuff shells with mixture and arrange stuffed side down in a single layer in the baking dish.
4. Cover shells with rest of spaghetti sauce.
5. Cover dish tightly with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
6. Remove foil, sprinkle mozzarella over top and bake uncovered 10 to 15 minutes more until the cheese melts and the sauce is bubbling.
