I had made stuffed shells before but with cheese only or with meat only. I had never combined the two. Who knew? I made these the other night and ended up with two pans; one small for my husband to have when he got home from work and the other for the family. They were delicious. I just lost 45 pounds through dieting and had to hold myself back from eating the whole pan myself. This is the only recipe I will use in the future. Thanks, Tammy. Another great one.
