About Stuff shells

Stuffed shells are a classic Italian-American dish featuring jumbo pasta shells filled with a rich mixture of ricotta cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, and often spinach or herbs, then baked in marinara sauce. This comforting dish combines the creamy texture of cheeses with a tangy tomato-based sauce, delivering both flavor and satisfaction. While stuffed shells are a good source of protein and calcium from the cheeses, they can be high in saturated fat depending on the recipe. Incorporating spinach or other vegetables into the filling boosts fiber and nutrients. To lighten the dish, low-fat cheese options or whole-grain pasta shells can be used. Typically served as a hearty main course, stuffed shells are a great option for gatherings and family meals. Always enjoy them in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
