Spinach-Stuffed Shells

15 uncooked jumbo pasta shells
1 envelope white sauce mix
1 cup (8 ounces) 4% cottage cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 egg white
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Dash pepper
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese

Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, prepare white sauce
according to package directions; set aside. In a small bowl, combine the
cottage cheese, mozzarella, egg white, basil, garlic powder, pepper and half of
the spinach (save remaining spinach for another use). Pour half of the white
sauce into a greased 11-in. x 7-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Drain pasta and rinse
in cold water; stuff each shell with 2 tablespoons spinach mixture. Arrange over
sauce. Top with remaining white sauce. Cover and bake at 375° for 25 minutes
or until heated through. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Yield: 5 servings.
