Preheat the oven to 200°C (approximately 400°F). Trim spinach, rinse and spin dry. Peel garlic and shallots and chop finely. Heat oil in a pan and sauté garlic and shallots until translucent. Add spinach, mix and season with salt and pepper.

Fill a piping bag with a large tip with spinach-ricotta mixture and fill cannelloni with it. Place filled cannelloni in the baking dish, cover with remaining tomatoes and sliced mozzarella and season again with salt, pepper and oregano. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. Meanwhile, trim lettuce, rinse, spin dry and tear into bite sized pieces. Mix oil in a bowl with vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Place prepared lettuce in a bowl and mix with vinaigrette. Serve salad with baked cannelloni.
