Stuffed Pasta Shells

I made this for Sunday dinner and Casey really liked it. I have tried a couple other jumbo shell pasta recipes and Casey liked them okay, but this one is his very favorite. He thought this one was really good. It got a little bit crispy around the edges, I am not sure if it is because I didn't put in quite as much pasta sauce as it called for, or if it was because it cooked on low for too long. It was still good though. Sorry there isn't a picture.

18 jumbo pasta shells
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 onion chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 Tbsp. parsley flakes
1 egg, beaten
2 jars meatless spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Cook pasta shells according to directions, just until tender and drain. Meanwhile, brown beef, onion and garlic on stove top, drain. Add mozzarella, bread crumbs, parsley and egg. Stuff shells, set aside. Pour 1 jar of sauce into Crockery Pot. Arrange stuffed shells in sauce. Top with other jar of sauce and Parmesan cheese. Cover and cook on low 5 to 7 hours.
