I followed the recipe exactly and the shells came out too mushy for my taste. I would recommend cooking the shells for a shorter amount of time.

I had a hard time finding jumbo shells at the store, so I used regular-sized shells instead. The filling was still delicious, but the shells were a little too small.

This recipe was a little too bland for my taste. I would have liked more flavor in the filling.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but it still turned out great. I used a different type of cheese and I added some chopped spinach to the filling. It was a delicious and easy meal.
