Tips
Cook jumbo pasta shells al dente, as they will continue cooking in the oven and need to be sturdy enough to hold the filling.
Make sure the spinach is cooked and fully drained to remove excess water before adding it to the filling, otherwise it will be too loose and runny.
Add a little sugar to balance the acidity from the tomato sauce.
Let the meat sauce simmer to allow the flavors to marinate and come together.
