I made this recipe this week. I lightened it up a little but could have lightened it up more by using low-fat mozzarella and low-fat cottage cheese. It still ended up being not too bad, pointwise, and completely delicious!
Stuffed Shells
32 Creamette Jumbo shells
Sauce:
29 oz crushed tomatoes
2 15 oz tomato sauce
6 oz tomato paste
Brown onion and garlic. Add tomatoes, sauce, and paste. Season with basil, Italian seasoning, 1/4 c. sugar, salt and pepper. Use spices to suit your own taste. Heat til warm.
Filling:
1 lb shredded mozzarella
1 c cottage cheese
1 whole egg + 4 egg whites
4 tbl Parmesan
4 tbl light butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Pinch nutmeg
Mix all together well. Parboil jumbo shells for 8 minutes before stuffing. Layer in casserole with sauce (sauce on bottom). Be generous with sauce.
Bake 350 for 45 minutes.
2 shells = 5 points plus
