In a skillet, saute the sausage over medium heat until the pork is no longer pink; drain. In a roasting pan, cook the pasta shells according to the package directions; drain and rinse with cold water. Using a pastry brush, brush the sides and bottom of a 3-liter baking dish with butter. Pour half of the marinara sauce into the roasting pan. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, ricotta cheese, 2-1 / 2 cups mozzarella, 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, basil, pepper, and prepared sausage. Fill the shells with the meat mixture; place in a baking dish. Drizzle the remaining marinara sauce over the shells. Cover and bake at 350 ° C for 30 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately.
