Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain, separate shells, and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). In a 9 x 13 baking dish, combine veal, carrots, celery, chopped half onion and spinach. Stir well. Stir in 1 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 2 tablespoons olive oil and white wine. Place in oven and roast until veal is brown and vegetables are soft, 30 to 40 minutes. Stir frequently. If meat begins to smoke, reduce heat to 400 degrees (200 degrees C).
- Let meat mixture cool 15 minutes, then process in food processor until finely chopped. Return to pan and stir in cream, Roma tomatoes, Parmesan, Italian seasoning and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil. Bake 20 minutes more. Remove from oven and let cool.
- While meat mixture is cooling enough to handle, make tomato sauce. Puree canned tomatoes with their juice in food processor until smooth. In large skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons virgin olive oil. Saute garlic and chopped onion until soft. Stir in pureed tomato, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Cook 5 to 10 minutes, or until no longer watery. Add four chopped basil leaves and cook 1 minute more.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stuff pasta shells with cooled meat mixture, 2 to 3 tablespoons per shell. Place shells in clean 9 x 13 baking dish. Pour tomato sauce over shells and bake 20 minutes, or until sauce is bubbly.

VEAL AND SPINACH CANNELLONI

Steps:
- 1 Prepare the béchamel sauce. 2 Put the spinach in a large pot over medium heat with 1/4 cup of water. Cover and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until wilted and tender. Drain and cool. Wrap the spinach in a lint-free cloth and squeeze out as much water as possible. Finely chop the spinach. 3 In a large skillet, melt the butter over mediumlow heat. Add the veal, carrots, celery, onion, and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is very tender, about 1 hour. If the meat becomes dry, add a little water. Let cool. On a cutting board with a large knife, or in a food processor, chop the mixture very fine. Scrape the meat and spinach into a bowl and add 1 cup of the béchamel and 1 cup of the Parmigiano. Mix well and taste for seasoning. 4 Meanwhile, prepare the pasta. Lay out some lint-free kitchen towels on a flat surface. Have ready a large bowl of cold water. Bring about 4 quarts of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of salt. Add the pasta squares a few pieces at a time. Cook the pasta until tender but slightly underdone. Scoop the pasta out of the water and place it in the cold water. When cool enough to handle, lay the pasta sheets out flat on the towels, which can be stacked one on top of the other. Continue cooking and cooling the remaining pasta in the same way. 5 Spoon half of the remaining béchamel in a thin layer in a large baking pan. Spread about two tablespoons of the filling on one end of each pasta square and roll up, starting from the filled end. Place the pasta roll seam-side down in the prepared pan. Repeat with the remaining pasta and filling, arranging the rolls close together in the pan. Spoon on the remaining sauce and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmigiano. (Can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Remove from the refrigerator about 1 hour before baking.) 6 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake 30 minutes or until the cannelloni are heated through and lightly golden. Serve hot. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.

VEAL, SPINACH AND CHEESE STUFFED CANNELLONI
Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the ground veal, pork and sweet sausage and cook until well-browned about 8 minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper. Add the crushed red pepper, garlic, and bay leaf and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, and cook for 1 minute more. Add the red wine and crushed tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat, stir in the chopped parsley, and cool slightly. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and lightly grease a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the milk and whisk to combine well. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, and cook for 5 minutes, until very thick and the floury taste is gone. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, and the nutmeg. Remove from the heat and press plastic wrap onto the surface of the sauce so that a skin will not form; reserve. In a large bowl combine the slightly cooled meat mixture, spinach, ricotta, and 1/4 cup of the grated Parmesan cheese. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, to taste. Arrange noodles flat on a clean work surface. Spoon 1/3 cup of the filling down the center of each square and roll to enclose the filling. Place the cannelloni, seam side down, in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining filling and pasta squares. Pour the reserved bechamel sauce over the cannelloni, making sure to cover the pasta completely. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Bake until heated through and golden and the sauce is bubbly, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool cannelloni for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Yield: 6 to 8 servings; 12 cannellon
