Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Clean the squid and chop the tentacles finely. Set aside.
- Saute the onion and garlic in one tablespoon olive oil and butter without browning, until the onion is soft. Add the tentacles and cook for 2 minutes. Add the spinach leaves and saute, stirring, until they are thoroughly wilted.
- In a mixing bowl combine the ricotta, egg, two tablespoons parsley and the cooked spinach mixture. Mix thoroughly and season with salt, pepper and hot pepper flakes to taste.
- Stuff the mixture into the squid -not too full - and secure the end closed with a toothpick.
- With the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, grease a rectanguler baking dish large enough to hold the stuffed squid comfortably in one layer. Arrange the squid in the dish and add the wine and tomatoes.Season with salt and pepper, and more pepper flakes if you like.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the squid is tender and the sauce has thickened. If there is too much liquid, turn the oven up and allow the sauce to reduce. If there is too little, add more white wine. Serve with lemon quarters.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring, until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes; season with salt. (You should have about 4 heaping cups of sauce.)
- Make the stuffed shells: Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta shells and cook as the label directs for baking, about 9 minutes. Rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Spread out on a baking sheet.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach and cook, tossing occasionally, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a large plate lined with a kitchen towel. Squeeze to remove any excess liquid, then finely chop.
- Put the spinach in a large bowl and add the ricotta, mozzarella, parsley, Parmesan, lemon zest, beaten egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Stir until combined.
- To assemble, spread about half of the sauce in the bottom of a 10-by-14-inch baking dish. Evenly fill the shells with the spinach-ricotta mixture using a spoon, or pipe it in using a pastry bag. Arrange the shells side by side, open-side up, in the baking dish on top of the sauce, then top with the remaining sauce.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake until heated through and the sauce is simmering around the edges, about 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until any shells or cheese poking through the sauce are lightly browned in spots, about 10 more minutes. Let sit 10 minutes. Top with more Parmesan and red pepper flakes.
CHEESY SPINACH-STUFFED SHELLS
This is my own personal recipe. I'm very proud of it because I am still a beginner cook and it was the first recipe I created. You can adjust it to your liking by doubling the spinach or adding some meat. -Laci Hooten, McKinney, Texas
