hamburger meat
12
oz
jar of Bertolli Tomato and Basil sauce

medium sea shell pasta
15
oz
ricotta cheese
1
egg
4

Instructions
Cook ground beef in a large skillet until fully cooked. Drain.
Add in jar of sauce, continue to simmer while noodles finish cooking.
Cook noodles as directed on the box. Drain gently, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together ricotta, egg, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
Add a layer of meat sauce to a large casserole dish, set aside.
Use a piping bag to fill each noodle with cheese mixture. Continue until all of the shells are filled.
Top the noodles with the remaining meat sauce.
Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
I like to turn the broiler on for 2-4 minutes to get the cheese nice and browned.
