We love these Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Shells because they have all the comforting goodness of lasagna but are so much easier to make!

Ingredients

Cook and drain the shells according to the package directions. While the shells are cooking, heat the oven to 400°F.
Stir the spinach, ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, lemon zest, if desired, and garlic powder in a bowl. Spoon 2 tablespoons of ricotta cheese mixture into each shell.
Spread 1 cup sauce in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Place the stuffed shells in the dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the shells. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 30 minutes or until hot.

You can substitute a 10-ounce package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained, for the fresh spinach.
