Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It
By replacing Italian sausage and full-fat cheese with a combination of low-fat cottage cheese, egg white and Kraft Part Skim Mozzarella Shredded Cheese, we've not only saved you 210 calories and 25 g of fat per serving, but also kept all the delicious flavour. As a bonus, the addition of spinach also makes these shells an excellent source of vitamin A.
Cooking Know-How
Cooking times listed for pastas are general guidelines. The only way to ensure that pasta is done to your liking is to try a piece. "Al dente," which translates to "to the tooth" or "to the bite," is the Italian terminology for properly cooked pasta.
