Directions
Sautee onion over medium heat just part way. Add Ground turkey, garlic and Italian seasoning. Add the spinach. You may need to add cooking spray with turkey so it doesn�t stick.
While cooking turkey heat sauce and broth in a pan (season to taste). Once turkey is fully cooked spoon about � cup or so of sauce into it. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Cook pasta shells per direction on box (I left mine a bit more al dente.)
In a bowl combine ricotta beaten egg, 8 oz of mozzarella and all of the parmesan.
Spoon some sauce into the bottom of an 11x13 casserole dish, just enough to cover the bottom. When shells are cool enough to handle begin spoon a small amount of the turkey mixture into the bottom topped with the ricotta mixture. Place them side by side packed tightly into the casserole dish. Top with remaining sauce and mozzarella cheese evenly. Bake covered with foil at 375 for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 10 minutes longer until top is bubbly.
