Before you jump to Stuffed Shells recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Easy Ways to Get Healthy.

We all realize that, in order to really be healthy and balanced, nutritious and balanced diets are important as are good amounts of exercise. The unfortunate thing is that, at the end of the day, we don’t always have enough time or energy required for a healthy lifestyle. When our work day is complete, most people do not prefer to go to the gym. A juicy, grease laden burger is usually our food of choice and not a leafy green salad (unless we are vegetarians). You should be thankful to learn that getting healthy doesn’t always have to be super hard work. With training you can get all of the nutritional requirements and the exercise that you need. Here are some tips to be as healthy as possible.

Take the stairs. Stroll up the stairs to where you live or work instead of using the elevator. This isn’t as easy to do if you work on a very high floor but if you work on a lower floor, using the stairs is a excellent way to get some extra exercise. If you do work on a extremely high floor, why not get off the elevator a few floors earlier and walk the rest of the way? Lots of people opt for the easy elevator ride instead of making an effort on the stairs. That one flight of stairs—when taken a few times a day—can be just the extra boost that your system needs.

There are all sorts of activities that you can do to get healthy and balanced. Intensive gym visits and directly defined diets are not always the solution. Little things, when done every day, can do a great deal to enable you to get healthy and lose pounds. Being intelligent about the choices you make each day is a start. Wanting to get in as much exercise as possible is another. Don’t ignore that health isn’t only about how much you weigh. It is more about making your body as strong as it can be.

We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to stuffed shells recipe. To cook stuffed shells you need 14 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Stuffed Shells:
  1. Prepare jumbo pasta shells
  2. Get small onions
  3. Get butter/margarine
  4. Provide egg whites (or 1/3 cup egg beaters or equivalent)
  5. Prepare skim milk ricotta
  6. Provide bag part skim mozzarella
  7. Use parmesan or romano cheese
  8. Get sugar
  9. You need garlic powder
  10. You need salt x2
  11. Use pepper
  12. Provide spinach (2 oz.)
  13. Take can Redpack crushed tomatoes (or 2 cans plum tomatoes)
  14. Use dried basil
Instructions to make Stuffed Shells:
  1. Get the sauce cooking. Melt butter/margarine in medium pot (or slow cooker) on LOW HEAT, mince onions as fine as possible and add to pot with the butter. Let simmer for 2 minutes to blanch onions.
  2. Mix dried basil with a 1/4 cup of water and microwave in a cup for 45 seconds. This will make a basil "tea". Strain and add basil "tea" to the sauce.
  3. Add cans of tomatoes, basil "tea", pepper, sugar and 1/8 tsp. salt to pot and let simmer at least an hour (or two). Add more sugar if you like it sweeter.
  4. Boil the shells and let cool being careful not to get them torn up.
  5. Mix thourloughly the ricotta, parmesan, eggs, garlic powder, 4 oz. mozzarella and cleaned spinach (remove the stems!). I used about a quarter of a bag of spinach.
  6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add several ladles of the tomato sauce to a casserole dish. Stuff the shells with cheese mixture and line the casserole dish with stuffed shells.
  7. Pour a few more ladles of the tomato sauce over the shells. Cover the dish with foil, poke a hole in the middle to vent. Be careful not to let the tomato sauce get on the foil as it will dissolve the foil! Bake covered for 40 minutes.
  8. Uncover and top cooked shells with the rest of the mozzarella cheese. Cook another 10 minutes.
  9. Let cool 5 minutes then serve!
  10. I've also made this by adding a half pound of hot sausage (or ground beef or even pepperoni) to the sauce. But, the vegetarian version is remarkable. The only really fattening part is the butter/margarine. I don't like using olive oil as it has a distinctly different taste than the more pungent flavor of butter/margarine. Feel free to use either parmesan or romano cheese. Pecorino romano is by far the best to use if you can.
