A delightful twist on a classic dish, these stuffed pasta shells are filled with a savory turkey and spinach mixture, baked to perfection.
Cook the pasta shells in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Undercook the pasta slightly as it will continue to cook in the oven.
In a skillet, sauté the onion and garlic in a bit of olive oil until softened.
Use medium heat to avoid burning the garlic.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned. Remove from heat.
Break up the turkey into small pieces for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, spinach, parsley, breadcrumbs, egg, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
Ensure the mixture is well combined for even flavor distribution.
Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a baking dish.
Grease the dish to prevent sticking.
Fill each pasta shell with the turkey and spinach mixture and arrange them in the baking dish.
Use a spoon to make filling the shells easier.
Pour the marinara sauce over the stuffed shells, covering them evenly.
Spread the sauce evenly for consistent flavor.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
Removing the foil at the end allows the top to brown slightly.
Serve the stuffed shells hot, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
Pair with a side salad for a complete meal.
