Ingredients

  • 6 oz large pasta shells ½ box
  • 2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic chopped
  • 1 cup pulled pork
  • 2 cups arugula
  • ½ cup mozzarella shredded
  • ½ cup ricotta
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan
  • 1 ¾ cup marinara sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Cook the pasta shells according to packet instructions so they are al dente. Drain and set aside on a baking sheet.
  • Meanwhile, warm the oil in a medium skillet over a medium heat. Add the garlic and cook a minute or two until fragrant. Add the pork and cook a minute to soften. Add the arugula and cook, folding it in so it all wilts down. Set aside to cool a minute.
  • Mix together ½ of the mozzarella (ie ¼ cup) with the ricotta, add the pork mixture and mix.
  • Put approximately 1 ¼ cups of the marinara sauce in the bottom of a baking dish.
  • Fill the pasta shells with the pork-cheese mixture and set in the marinara in rows. (You might not use quite all of them, but a couple often break in boiling.)
  • Top with the remaining marinara sauce, the rest of the mozzarella and the parmesan.
  • Cover and bake for 30-40 minutes, uncovering for the last 5-10 minutes.
