SAUSAGE STUFFED SHELLS

April 27, 2013

Stuffed shells are a really fun and classic dinner. And I of course have to acknoledge that they are very pretty in the pan. It is not very much more work, but it has a lot more fun and delight to serve than just a more plain noodles and red sauce. For this version I used italian sausage for the meat. (It could be meatless, but that’s not really our way in the schultz home.) Also there is ricotta because I am a huge fan of it in pretty much all italian dishes.
