Ingredients
1 head radicchio
8 ounces ricotta
2 eggs beaten
4 ounces parmesan grated
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
pasta shells jumbo
8 ounces mozzarella grated
parsley Italian, chopped
salt
pepper
Pull the radicchio leaves apart and rinse. If possible, lightly grill them on an open flame. If no grill, lightly saute. (either way, just until they soften – the idea is to remove the bitterness.) Chop up the leaves – very fine. Cook the shells until barely al dente. Rinse and drain. Mix up everything else, (except olive oil) throw in the radicchio and stuff the shells. Put them on a lightly oiled sheet, brush w olive oil and bake for 20-30 minutes at 350. Goes well with roasted tomato sauce.
