Ingredients

1 pound jumbo pasta shells (16 pieces)
1 cup (4 oz) baby pasta shells
6 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup EVOO
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon herbes de provence
Salt and pepper
1/2 pound thawed frozen spinach, squeezed to remove excess liquid
1 1/2 cups ricotta (about 12 oz)
1/2 cup grated parmesan
Directions

Preheat the broiler. In a pot of boiling, salted water, cook the jumbo shells until al dente. In a smaller saucepan of boiling, salted water, cook the baby shells until al dente. Drain separately, reserving 3/4 cup of the cooking water. Spread the jumbo shells out on a work surface.
Meanwhile, in a large, ovenproof skillet, toss the tomatoes with 3 tbsp. EVOO. Broil for 15 minutes. Remove, then stir in the garlic, herbs and 1/2 cup reserved pasta water; season with salt and pepper. Lower the oven to 350 degrees .
In a bowl, toss the baby shells with the remaining 1 tbsp. EVOO. Stir in the spinach, ricotta, 1/4 cup parmesan and remaining 1/4 cup pasta water; season. Stuff the jumbo shells with the spinach mixture; arrange in the skillet atop the sauce. Top with the remaining parmesan, cover and bake until heated through, about 30 minutes.

Bring 8 cups water and the broth cubes to boil in a 4 to 5 qt. pot, stirring to dissolve cubes. Add chicken thighs , seasoning and garlic. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

Remove chicken to cutting board; let stand until cool enough to handle. Skim fat off broth and discard.

Stir frozen spinach and the squash into the broth, increase heat to medium and cook 8 minutes or until spinach thaws. Add chickpeas and rice; cook 15 minutes or until squash and rice are tender.(do not overcook!)

Meanwhile remove skin, bone and fat from chicken. Cut chicken in bite-size pieces; add to pot. Ladle soup in bowls and sprinkle with cheese.
