  • These amazing stuffed shells recipe is baked in a classic tomato and white sauce with delicious meat and ricotta cheese filling. I like to use a combination of Italian sausage and ground beef to make this a hearty meal to serve to friends and family.
    Stuffed shells are a classic Italian recipe consisting of cheese or meat-stuffed pre-cooked pasta shells that are baked with a red or white sauce until the cheese stuffing is hot and melty. This classic recipe is commonly served up for holidays in the United States, however, in Italy and Sicily, this is a traditional Sunday lunch or dinner.
    My family makes and serves this up every single Easter for as long as I've been alive. It's a dish I look forward to eating but does require processes similar to that of my lasagna Bolognese recipe.

    I just made this following the directions except I did find the spaghetti sauce, because I’m not Italian or Greek, a little tart so I did add a little bit of sugar. I also used ground pork inst😢of the sausage. Other than that, I did it per your instructions. It did take a bit of time because of making the prep - boiling the shells - making the burger mix - the other cheese sauce, and then putting it all together it took time. First time making it it took me almost 2 1/2 hours to get it done. I gave it to my son, who has autism, he loved it. I gave it to my neighbor. Don’t know what his “real” thoughts were of it, but he said he liked it. I did eat after everything done and chilled my legs - love it - but please tell everybody that there is an amount of time in that prep for this recipe. To me, if I had to do it again, I would start the day before get everything ready to put it together the next day, thank you, but it was great thank

    This looks heavenly, and I know it’s beyond amazing in flavor, but between the meats, cans of San Marzano tomatoes, four cups whole milk, and all the other ingredients, isn’t this expensive? I made spaghetti sauce from scratch a few times, from two Italian chefs on UA-cam (Gianni from North Beach is one; he’s like watching your Italian uncle cook, complete with the occasional swear word), with regular San Marzano and then D.O.P. San Marzano (huge flavor difference, worth the extra $), but it seemed to cost more than a jar of Rao (honestly, the best marinara jarred sauce by far, worth $8/jar).
