Noodles stuffed with WHAT!?


You can stuff noodles with ANYTHING.  I tried something new...and I thought I'd share it with you!

1/2 Cup Basil Pesto
1 TBSP of olive oil

Mix together in a bowl - set aside

1/2 Zucchini chopped
1/2 Red pepper chopped
1/4 White onion minced (chopped up real tiny)
1/4 Cup Mushrooms chopped (optional)
1 TBSP of garlic
1/2 Cup Ricotta cheese
1/2 Cup Mozzarella cheese
1 TSP Basil
Large pasta shells

Preheat oven to 350*

Cook shells accordingly



Saute the veggies with olive oil and basil
Add garlic towards end of saute-ing and turn heat up
Mix cheeses, basil pesto, and veggies



Put the mixture into the cooked shells
Place the shells into a pan that is foiled and sprayed with cooking oil
Top with extra basil pesto and cheese

Cook for about 15 minutes (or until cheese is melted/browned a little)
SERVE AND NOMZ!




Along side the shells, a tomato and mozzarella salad is good and light.  Chop fresh tomato and fresh mozzarella cheese, add a little basil and balsamic vinaigrette. toss and EAT!
