Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.
We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research.

Instructions
- For the sauce, heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large stock pot.
- Add onion and garlic and lightly brown. Season with salt and pepper.
- Next, add the tomatoes. Cover and simmer for one hour.
- Add the Parmesan cheese, basil, and wine and cover simmer on low for another 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, pre-heat oven to 350F.
- Bring a large pot of water to boiling over high heat. Place the squash (cut in half lengthwise) in the boiling water for 10-15 minutes.
- Scoop out the seeds and then using a fork, scrape at the flesh of the squash to create the spaghetti-like strands and set aside. Cut the stem from the shell of the squash, discard the stem and set the shells aside for later.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over med-high heat. Add shallots, garlic, red onion, carrots, celery, and red pepper. Saute for 5 min or till just tender, stirring often.
- Add yellow squash, zucchini, broccoli and asparagus.
- Season with salt and pepper. Give a quick stir.
- Next, add 3/4 cup of the prepared Marinara sauce. Toss to coat the veggies. Season again with salt and pepper. Toss in the reserved spaghetti squash strands and stir to combine. Then set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
- Once it's cooled a bit, throw in about a 1/4 cup of the fresh tarragon leaves and another 1/2 cup of the marinara.
- Starting with one shell, fill with half the veggie mixture and top with two thick slices of the fresh mozzarella. Repeat with the second shell.
- Place onto a baking sheet and place into the oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese is nice and bubbly and a little browned.
- Remove from oven and top with 1 cup of marinara per shell.
