ITALIAN SAUSAGE STUFFED SHELLS
Believe it or not, I'm not a fan of cheese and try to avoid it whenever possible. So dishes that are stuffed with things like ricotta turn me off. I created this dish as a compromise to my cheese avoidance and my husband's love of Italian food. Serve this with garlic bread and a salad for a wonderful family dinner.

- Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil and add shells. Cook according to box instructions, around 6-8 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water.
- Meanwhile, in a large pan over medium heat, heat 1/2 tbsp of olive oil. When oil is hot, add in sausage and shallots. Season with Italian seasoning. Cook, breaking up the pieces of meat into small bits, until the meat is cooked through and the shallots are tender. Add garlic, and cook for an additional minute.
- Add in white wine, and allow the wine to reduce by about half (approx. 2-3 minutes). Then, add heavy cream to pan, and stir to combine with meat and oil. Allow the cream to bubble slightly, then add the spinach. Cook until the spinach is wilted down. (Sauce time = 13-15 minutes)
- Add in the hot shells, toss to combine. Season with freshly ground pepper, as much or as little as you like, then season with salt to your preferred taste. Add pecorino, and toss to combine. Then slowly add pasta water, bit by bit, just until you are left with a creamy uniform sauce (I used about ½ cup).
