I'm not a fan of ricotta cheese, so I used cottage cheese instead. It turned out great!

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

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it turned out much better.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually use a jar of marinara sauce, but I've also made it with fresh tomatoes and it's just as good.
