~ Cheesy Stuffed Shells ~ image

My family love these shells over the meat filled version. Any cheeses would work, according to your liking. I switch them up at times, but always come back to our original version. Enjoy!

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lb container ricotta cheese
1 c fresh shredded parmesan cheese
2 eggs plus 2 yolks
3 c fresh shredded mozzarella
1 Tbsp dried parsley flakes
1 tsp each - garlic powder and black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
16 oz favorite pasta sauce
1 - 12 oz large stuffing type shells
I topped with 4 ounces of fresh mozzarella , shredded

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare shells per box directions. Al dente works great, rinse. In a medium bowl, mix together the cheeses. Beat eggs lightly and stir them in along with the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Using a casserole dish, spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of dish. Evenly stuff each shell and lay cheese side up into dish, until full. You may need to use another dish. Continue until cheese is gone. If you have extra noodles, I just fill in the crack with them.
  • 3. Ladle sauce across the middle of each shell, cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and sprinkle the top with more mozzarella. Place back into oven until cheese is melted and pasta bubbling. I usually heat up extra sauce and serve with.

I'm not a fan of ricotta cheese, so I used cottage cheese instead. It turned out great!

I'm allergic to cheese, so I made this recipe with a vegan cheese filling. It was still really good.

This recipe was too complicated for me. I ended up ordering pizza instead.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shells turned out dry and the filling was bland.

I added some cooked chicken to the filling and it was delicious.

I had some trouble finding jumbo shells, so I used regular-sized shells instead. They still turned out great.

This dish was easy to make and very delicious. The shells were stuffed with a creamy cheese filling and baked in a tomato sauce. I served it with a side of garlic bread and a salad.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The shells are always cooked perfectly and the filling is delicious. I like to add a little bit of extra cheese to the top before baking.
