Spinach & Ricotta Cannelloni 🍅🍝

Welcome back to my Autumn recipe series ‘Cosy Bites & Crisp Nights’. This is day 16 and today we’re making this delicious gluten free spinach & ricotta cannelloni using @tenutamarmorelle ‘s gluten free cannelloni! It’s so warming, delicious and I guarantee your friends and family will love it ☺️🍂

Ingredients:
For the tomato sauce –
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 tin chopped tomatoes
500ml chicken or vegetable stock
Salt & pepper to taste
Handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp Italian herbs
1/2 tsp dried chives

For the filling:
150g frozen spinach
250g ricotta
30g grated Parmesan
100g grated cheese (I used a mixture of cheddar and mozzarella)
1 egg
1 minced garlic cloves
Pinch of nutmeg
Salt & pepper

1. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onion, garlic, bay leaf and seasonings and cook for a few minutes. Add in the tomato pasta and mix well.
2. Add in the chicken stock, tinned tomatoes and torn basil leaves and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and using a stick blender, blend into a smooth sauce.
3. Squeeze any excess liquid out of the defrosted spinach and mix all of the filling ingredients together until well combined. Add the mixture to a piping bag and pipe the mixture into 8-10 pasta shells.
4. Spread a large spoonful of pasta sauce in the bottom of your baking dish and then add the cannelloni on top. Top with more sauce and bake at 180C for 25-30 mins. Remove from the oven, add more grated cheese and cook for a further 10-15 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or Parmesan and enjoy!

This recipe is too delicious not to try!😍🙌🏻
