8 oz    jumbo shells

15 oz    ricotta cheese

1/2 cup    chopped green olives  
  Salt to taste

1 15 oz    can tomato sauce  
1/4 cup    grated Parmesan

1 Cook the shells according to package directions. Rinse, drain and spread on a sheetpan while you prepare the filling.
2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
3 In a small saute pan, stir together the onion and olive oil. Cook over medium heat until the onion is wilted, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the ricotta cheese, raisins, olives, and salt and pepper to taste.
