Category: Pasta - Seafood
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 box of giant pasta shells to stuff
4 cans (6 oz) crab meat, drained
20 oz ricotta cheese
Zest of 2 lemons
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella or Mixed Italian cheeses
Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
4 tbsp basil, shredded or chiffonade
Handful of baby spinach leaves
2 egg lightly beaten
2 cups cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
More salt & pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 350.

Combine the crab, ricotta, 1/2 cup Parmesan, Mozzarella, lemon zest, garlic, basil and salt & pepper in a bowl.

Boil up the pasta shells and stuff with crab mixture. Place the cannelloni seam side down in a large enough baking dish to hold the 4 cannelloni or all the stuffed pasta shells (stuffing side up). Pour the cream, remaining Parmesan and more freshly ground pepper. Bake for 15-30 minutes and serve with a delicious salad.
