LOW FAT CHEESY JUMBO PASTA SHELLS WITH GROUND TURKEY

Steps:

• In an 8 quart pot, bring water to a boil and cook shells according to package directions.
• Drain and cool immediately with cold water.
• Drain and place open side down on paper towels.
• Meanwhile brown ground turkey with onion and garlic; drain fat.
• Combine the next 8 ingredients.
• In a medium bowl, combine ground turkey and the cheese mixture.
• Reserve the 1/4 cup of Mozzarella.
• Place a thin layer of spaghetti sauce into the bottom of a 12 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Spoon the cheese/meat mixture into each pasta shell and place open side up, in a single layer, in prepared pan. I don't usually use all 12 ounces of noodles.
• Pour the remaining sauce (RESERVE 1 Cup Sauce) over the stuffed shells.
• Loosely cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
• During last 5 minutes of baking, remove foil and sprinkle remaining Mozzarella cheese on top.
• Bake 5 more minutes.
• Garnish with fresh chopped basil. I like to have a side of warm spaghetti sauce to drizzle over; especially for left-overs.
