Seafood Stuffed Shells! image

I had this dish at an Italian restaurant, years ago. I loved it so much and raved about it, but when I went back, they had updated the menu, which involved removing my favorite dish! Well, guess that means I have to make it myself! So here it is, my home version!

These were easy to make and so delicious! I used a mix of shrimp and crab in the filling, and it was perfect. The shells were cooked perfectly and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.
