* 1 (16oz) box Jumbo Shells
* 1 (15oz) container of ricotta cheese
* 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
* 1 egg
* 1 cup mozzarella cheese
* salt, pepper, oregano and garlic powder to taste
1. Cook the Jumbo shells according to the package instructions, drain and set aside to cool. (I have found that it is better to separate any shells that get nested inside each other before they cool. Yeah, tough on the fingers, but they are less likely to stick together making them split or break if you do this when they are still warm.)
2. Mix together the ricotta, Parmesan, egg and mozzarella cheese in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle with the salt, pepper, oregano and garlic powder. If I had to guess at how much I used of these spices it would be something like this (salt-1/2 teaspoon, pepper-1/4 teaspoon, oregano-2 teaspoons? and garlic powder-1/2 teaspoon) Please note that is a GUESS cause I don't really know. :)
3. Spoon the cheese mixture into the shells and place in a casserole dish.

4. Pour spaghetti sauce all over it. I'm using tomato based sauce here, but Alfredo is also really good with this recipe.

5. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Easy!
