Greek Stuffed Shells image

This recipe I made myself. I had 1 lemon that I needed to use up. When my dad was going through the cupboard above the stove, he pointed out that I had jumbo shells I needed to use. What does lemon juice + shells equal? Greek stuffed shells, of course. I googled for recipes, but I got nothing. So I took the typical Greek ingredients and replaced the Italian ingredients with these. If you repost this recipe, please credit me at http://chocolatemoosey.blogspot.com

The shells were a little overcooked, but the filling was still good.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I would add more spices next time.

These shells were delicious! I used a different type of cheese in the filling, but it still turned out great.
