These vegan stuffed shells with tofu ricotta are a delicious and satisfying plant-based twist on a classic Italian dish. The creamy tofu filling mixed with savory herbs and spices is packed into jumbo pasta shells and baked to perfection in marinara sauce.
Ingredients: 1 package jumbo pasta shells. 1 block firm tofu, drained and crumbled. 1/4 cup nutritional yeast. 2 tablespoons lemon juice. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon dried basil. 1 teaspoon dried oregano. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. 1 jar marinara sauce. Fresh basil leaves for garnish optional.
Instructions: Set oven temperature to 175C 350F. Pasta shells should be cooked as directed on the package until they are al dente. After draining, set aside. Crumbled tofu, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper should all be combined in a mixing bowl. To make the tofu ricotta filling, thoroughly mix. Line the bottom of a baking dish with a thin layer of marinara sauce. Place the cooked pasta shells in the baking dish after stuffing them with the tofu-ricotta mixture. Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the shells after they are all filled and arranged in the dish. When the shells are thoroughly heated, bake the dish covered with foil for 25 to 30 minutes. If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves right before serving.
