Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Boil pasta as per package directions. Drain and set aside.

While pasta is cooking, brown ground beef in a large pan. Once beef is just browned add in green pepper and garlic. Cook till pepper is softened. Remove from heat and add in the tomato sauce.

Stir together ricotta, spinach, basil, parmesan, 1/2 cup mozzarella, egg and pepper.

In a 9 x 13" dish spread about 1/3 of the tomato sauce over the bottom of the dish. Stuff shells with the cheese mixture and place in the dish. Cover shells with the remaining tomato sauce and sprinkle with the left over mozzarella.

Cover dish with tin foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes until the cheese is lightly browned and bubbly.
