I only joined SW on Monday and have been struggling a bit finding tasty foods to eat. But tonight, I had made a super tasty meal - baked canneloni from SW's website. Here is the link to the
recipe (members only) and for those without a login here's the recipe copied pasted:
Serves: 4
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 25 minutes
Syns per serving:

Ingredients
8 cannelloni tubes
A few basil leaves, torn
2 level tbsps grated Parmesan cheese
for the Filling:
227g/8oz fresh spinach, washed and trimmed
227g/8oz fat-free natural cottage cheese
freshly grated nutmeg
1 egg yolk
salt and ground black pepper
for the Sauce:
426ml/¾pt passata
pinch of sugar
1 garlic clove, crushed
salt and ground black pepper
1. To make the filling put the spinach in a saucepan with 2 tablespoons of water. Cover with a lid and cook very gently over a low heat for about 5 minutes, until the leaves are limp and bright green. Drain in a colander, pressing down on top of the spinach with a saucer to squeeze out all the liquid.
2. Chop the spinach and mix with the cottage cheese, nutmeg, egg yolk and seasoning. Spoon the filling into the cannelloni tubes and arrange them in an ovenproof dish.
3. Mix the passata, sugar, garlic and seasoning together and pour over the cannelloni. Sprinkle with basil and Parmesan cheese and bake in a preheated oven at 200C°/400°F/Gas Mark 6 for about 20 minutes, until bubbling and golden brown.
I found the passata quite tangy and bitter, so I think I may use chopped tomatoes next time, plus the pasta wasn't as sloppy as I usually like canelloni, so maybe would leave it in an extra 10 minutes.
