I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds for the pine nuts in this recipe. It turned out great!

These stuffed pasta shells were a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some zucchini, mushrooms, and spinach that I needed to use up, and this recipe was perfect.

I loved the idea of this recipe, but I had some trouble getting the shells to cook evenly. Some of them were still hard in the middle.

These shells were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.
