I kind of put this one together based off what was in my cabinets and what my tastes buds were calling for. I used the Barilla large shells for the pasta. You will boil them until they are done. I never need all the shells, but usually boil the whole box and use the leftovers for the kids to put pasta sauce on.
I grilled my chicken outside on the grill although you can boil it or bake it. You will want about 1 lb of chicken. In a skillet I put a handful of fresh spinach, 1 block of cream cheese, 1/2 jar sun dried tomatoes, 1 can petite diced tomatoes (drained) and 1/4 jar marinara. I cooked that until the cream cheese was melted and all blended together.
Once this was cooked I poured 1/2 of the jar of marinara on the bottom of a 9x13 and spread evenly. I then stuffed each shell individually and lined them row by row in the casserole dish. Once the casserole dish was full I used the remaining of the marinara and drizzle on the top and added sprinkled cheese. I baked for 15 minutes on 375 uncovered.
This recipe may not be as beneficial because I was so hungry I forgot to take a picture of the final product. Either way it was absolutely fantastic and we barely had any leftover.
