- 3 tbsp finely chopped fennel, divided
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- Cook shells in a large pot of boiling salted water for about 9 minutes (slightly undercooked). Drain and rinse with cold water.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet. Add mushrooms and cook with black pepper and 1 tsp. salt, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium, add wine, and cook stirring, until reduced by half. Add spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach is completely wilted. Transfer to a large bowl.

- Add half of the Violife Grated to the mushroom mixture and stir to combine. Spoon about 2 tbsp of the mixture into each shell. Add the tomato sauce in a baking tray and submerge stuffed shells within. Sprinkle with the other half of the Violife Grated. Place in the oven at 160°C for 10-15 minutes.
