Istruzioni

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook shells, stirring occasionally, until al dente according to package directions for stuffed shells.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 7 minutes. Add zucchini and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is lightly browned and softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool slightly.

To bowl, add ricotta, Parmesan, corn, basil, 1/2 cup mozzarella, zest and juice from 1 lemon and cooled zucchini mixture and stir to combine; generously season with salt and pepper.

Spread marinara sauce in the bottom of a 13" x 9" baking dish. Stuff each shell with about 2 tablespoons ricotta mixture and arrange in baking dish. Top with remaining 1 cup mozzarella.

Bake stuffed shells until cheese is beginning to brown brown and sauce is bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes.

Top with basil leaves and zest from 1 lemon. Cut zested lemon into wedges and serve alongside. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
