Here is an easy stuffed shells recipe that will leave you wanting for more shells than ever. Even though these shells look pretty hard to fill, they're actually super simple. You just have to get your spoon inside, and you're good to go!
Fill the filling with a spoon. Even though it looks complicated, it's really not.
In the recipe (below) I wrote "1/2 cup tomato sauce" but you can totally use 1 cup.
Prep time is only 5 minutes and the bake time is 30, so it's actually pretty easy.
