Stuffed Shells III - British cuisine

This recipe is a hit wherever you go.

It is a very rich and cheesy meal and looks like a deep-dish pizza when done. I altered what I was originally given because I did not like cottage cheese and added other ingredients that I thought it deserved.

Stuffed Shells is one of the comforting Italian dishes featuring pasta baked with cheese and sauce. Warm, cozy, and fully satisfying, the preparation involves filling jumbo pasta shells with a blend that includes ricotta, pecorino romano, parmigiano reggiano, lemon, and parsley. The result is a hefty bite of pasta that’s tender, cheesy, and the perfect meal for a family gathering, Sunday dinner, or quiet weeknight. We built this recipe using Paesana marinara pasta sauce, as it’s the purest expression of deliciously sweet and zesty tomato sauce—the ideal backdrop for cheese-filled pasta shells.
