Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Pasta shells recipe is an easy to prepare pasta casserole. Great for potlucks and weeknight dinners, this recipe is easy to prepare and economical.

Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Pasta shells are bursting with a spinach and cheese mixture. Adding spinach to these cute shells is a great way to sneak vegetables in your children’s diet… or your husband or yourself! We can all use a few more veggies, #AmIRight?

The shells rest on a bed of store-bought spaghetti sauce. If you have a world-famous tomato sauce, please fill free to substitute it.

Topping this Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Pasta is mozzarella cheese. Baked until the mozzarella is melted and gooey, this is comfort food at it’s finest!

This pasta is a hearty yet meatless meal and is very easy to make.

Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Pasta recipe - delicious pasta shells are stuffed with cheese and spinach and baked to perfection!

Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Pasta

  1. Slightly undercook your pasta shells. They will cook more in the oven.
  2. Use your favorite spaghetti sauce, whether that’s store-bought or homemade. Find my Slow Cooker Tomato Sauce here. 
  3. Squeeze as much of the liquid out of the spinach as you can. I use paper towels.
  4. I highly recommend using freshly grated Parmesan cheese in all your recipes! That pre-shredded Parmesan is not as flavorful as if you grate it yourself.
  5. You can also add cooked chicken or Italian sausage to your spinach and cheese mixture!
