• In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• In large bowl, mix pasta sauce and water. Pour 1 cup of the pasta sauce mixture in bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish. In medium bowl, mix cheese spread, 1 cup of the Italian cheese, the Parmesan cheese, egg and cooked beef. Spoon heaping tablespoon mixture into each shell. Arrange stuffed shells over sauce in baking dish. Pour remaining sauce over top, covering shells completely. Cover with foil.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until bubbly and cheese filling is set. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Italian cheese. Bake uncovered about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot bring water to a boil and cook shells according to package directions or until al dente. Drain and plunge into cold water to cool. Drain again and set aside.
• 2. In a medium bowl combine - 1 cup mozzarella cheese, parmesan, ricotta, eggs, spinach, garlic, pepper and parsley.
• 3. Pour a thin later of spaghetti sauce on the bottom of a 12 x 9" baking dish. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• 4. Spoon the cheese mixture into each shell and place right side up in a baking dish. Repeat until cheese mixture is gone. Pour the remaining sauce over the shells. Sprinkle the lemon basil on top. Cover loosely with tin foil and bake in the oven for 40 minutes. During the last 5 minutes of baking, remove the tin foil and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the shells. Bake 5 more minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients, except pasta and 1/4 c Parmesan cheese in large mixing bowl.
• Mix well and fill each cooked pasta shell.
• Place in ungreased 11 by 17 pan.
• Cover w/ marinara sauce and then sprinkle with remaining Parmesan, cover w/foil, and bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes.
• Time does not include time to make marinara, but I cook mine as I make the shells so it really doesn't affect the time.
• Servings are a guess.
