Italian Sausage Stuffed Shells

Serves 4

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 9 x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray; set aside. Preheat large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Brown Italian sausage, breaking up lumps as it cooks. After about 5 minutes, add onion, garlic, and Italian seasoning. Sauté until sausage is completely cooked and onion is translucent, about 5 more minutes. Set aside to cool.
2. After sausage mixture has cooled, fold in ricotta, mozzarella, and 1 cup of the parmesan; sprinkle with garlic salt and freshly ground pepper. Stuff shells with cheese and sausage mixture and place in prepared baking pan. Pour pasta sauce over the top, cover, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove cover and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup of Parmesan cheese; bake 15 minutes more. Serve hot.
