Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package jumbo pasta shells
4 cups fresh ricotta cheese
12 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup grated Pecorino Romano
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tbs. chopped parsley
16 oz marinara sauce
Directions:
1. Cook shells according to package directions. Place in cold water to stop cooking. Drain.
2. Mix together ricotta cheese, ½ the mozzarella cheese, ½ cup Pecorino Romano cheese, eggs, and parsley.
3. Stuff mixture into the shells using a piping bag.
4. Spread ½ of marinara sauce in the bottom of a 15 x 10-inch pan. Place shells open side up, and close together in the pan. Spread remaining sauce over top, add the remaining mozzarella on top of the sauce and sprinkle with remaining Pecorino Romano cheese.
5. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 35 minutes, or until bubbly. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
