Stuffed shells tips "Stuff" the shells more efficiently: Add the cheese/ricotta mixture to a gallon sized plastic ziploc bag. The stuffed shells are almost a complete meal themselves, but a light salad would be a nice side. Lately I've been loving big spinach salads with fresh cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, kalamata olives, cucumber, avocado, pine nuts (or almonds) and a liberal amount of goat cheese (or feta), which has a really fresh, summery/Mediterranean vibe. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta shells and cook for half the cooking time on the package; make sure not to overcook.
