Cheesy Shrimp Shells

This is a pretty quick dish and I love that is also a bit more on the healthy side.  The flavors are great together.  Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-15-16 uncooked jumbo shells
-1 1/2 cups tomato sauce
-2 egg whites, lightly beaten
-15 oz ricotta cheese
-6 oz small cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined, with tails removed, cut into small pieces
-a handful fresh baby spinach, roughly chopped
-1 tsp garlic powder
-1 tsp Italian seasoning
-3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
-1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Cook the shells according to the package instruction.  Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.  Drain and set aside.
Coat a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray.  Spread 1/2 cup of sauce evenly over bottom of pan.
In a large bowl, mix together egg whites, ricotta cheese, shrimp, spinach, garlic powder and seasoning.  Stir in 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup parmesan.
Spoon cheese mixture into cooked shells, and place in prepared baking dish.  Spread remaining sauce on top.  Sprinkle with remaining cheeses. 
Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.  Enjoy!
