This recipe is a bit too expensive for my budget. I had to use cheaper ingredients and it didn't turn out as well.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my shells didn't cook evenly. Some were still hard while others were overcooked.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and seasonings to the filling and it was much better.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my shells didn't turn out very cheesy. They were still tasty, but not as cheesy as I would have liked.

I'm not a fan of Velveeta cheese, so I used a different type of cheese in the filling. It still turned out great.

This recipe was easy to follow and the end result was delicious. The shells were stuffed with a creamy mixture of chicken, broccoli, and cheese. I topped the shells with extra cheese and baked them until they were golden brown. Highly recommend!
