Directions
Cook shells according to package directions.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring often, until they begin to soften, 4 minutes.
Add beans and seasonings.
Cook until heated through, 1 minute.
Drain pasta, shaking to remove as much moisture as possible.
Fill with bean mixture. Arrange in a shallow casserole that is just large enough to hold shells.
Sprinkle with olives and cheese.
Broil 6 inches from heat source just until the cheese melts, about 1 minute.
