There is nothing quite like the feeling of getting up in the morning and knowing that dinner for that night is already in the fridge waiting for the oven! Maybe it is just me, but I get excited about that and I love to cook! However this time I tried making this the morning of the day we were baking it. (I was too sleep deprived from a screaming newborn to make it the night before!) It worked great...so if you don't get it made the night before, you still have a chance in the morning! This recipe has you stuffing uncooked pasta which is soooo much easier than stuffing cooked pasta. Below you will see how I put the filling in a zip lock bag and snip the corner to pipe it into the shells. Works like a charm...just squeeze half in one end, then flip the pasta over and fill the rest from the other end.
Here are the little guys all lined up like soldiers...I added 1/2 pound of ground beef to the filling..I am married to a big meat eater! The only change I made was the recipe called for 5 cups of marinara sauce, it really just needs 4 cups...which is 2 - 24oz. jars. I must have been typing too fast when I typed this recipe up, sorry about that. This is a good way to get some veggies in kids and husbands! -Carissa
