Italian Stuffed Shell Recipe

1 lb ground beef

1 large onion, diced

1 clove garlic, chopped

8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup Italian style breadcrumbs

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1 egg, beaten

1 (26 ounce) jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce

8 ounces tomato sauce

1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated

18 jumbo pasta shells, cooked and drained

1/3 cup dry red wine

Directions

1. Cook the shells according to directions on package.

2. In a large fry pan brown the Burger, Onion and Garlic. Drain and let cool.

3. After the burger has cooled combine meat, mozzarella cheese, bread crumbs, egg and parsley; season with salt and pepper.

4. Mix spaghetti sauce with tomato sauce; cover bottom of a 13×9 casserole dish with 1/4 of the sauce.

5. Stuff cooked, drained shells with the meat mixture and place on top of sauce in dish in a row.

6. Add red wine to remaining sauce and mix well; cover shells with sauce and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

7. Bake in oven for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly and browned.

I save a little of the Mozzarella Cheese and use it to garnish the top soon as it comes out of the oven.

Enjoy!
