"Just the basic cheese filled stuffed shells recipe you get off the back of the box, adjusted slightly for OAMC. The prep time is long but it's well worth it to pull them out of the freezer weeks from now and have an easy and quick meal."

This recipe is fabulous and easy! I made the whole batch, then froze half by flash freezing the shells in a baking pan. Once they were frozen, I wrapped them in foil and threw them in a freezer bag to use at a later date. The other half made a great meal for my family, who enjoyed the shells very much. Thanks!
