Easy Stuffed Shells


Stuffed shells used to intimidate me. I used to think that there was no easy way about it.
Until I made this recipe. This recipe is my own creation, and I used almost all leftovers based off of other meals we had previously during the week! 

What You'll Need:
Large Shells (I only used half of the box)
Spaghetti Sauce
1 box Cream Cheese
Colby Jack Cheese / Parmesan Cheese

Optional (pictured): Spicy Sausages,

How to do it:
1. Boil your shells. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese and the spaghetti sauce together well. I heated mine in the microwave for one minute to help it blend. Once fully cooked, drain and rinse noodles. Take your bowl and mix, and dump into a plastic bag. Cut a hole in a corner.
2.  Prep a baking pan by placing a thin layer of spaghetti sauce over the bottom. Fill the shells by squeezing the mix into the shells with the plastic bag trick. As you finish your shells, place them in the pan. Do this until the pan is full, or until you've run out of sauce or shells.
3. Cover with cheese and bake in the oven for 15 minutes on 350. During the last five minutes, set the oven to broil to let the cheese get golden. Remove from oven and let cool.


Scoop up, serve and Enjoy!

  2. Hi Bubba and Dani, I’m Anne from Life on the Funny Farm (http://annesfunnyfarm.blogspot.com), and I’m visiting from Super Sunday Sync.

    These look delicious! I've never made stuffed shells before (other than the pre-stuffed frozen ones). Like you said, I've been intimidated! But now I'm going to try.

    Anyway, thanks for posting this. If you’ve never visited yet, I hope you can pop by my blog sometime to say hi

  3. It's like you read my mind! I was just talking with my boyfriend, the Mathemagician about stuffed shells and how I didn't know how to make them. I know what we'll be having for dinner tonight! I pinned this recipe for later. I also followed your blog. I found your blog via The Aloha Blog Hop. Hope you stop by and say hi-- http://penpaperpad.com. Aloha!
