Wow. What a combination! Spinach ,artichokes and yummy cheese. It was like eating spinach & artichoke dip in pasta Like another reviewer I used ricotta and the whole box of spinach. I made the pepperoncini sauce but wasn't much impressed with that but I did give it 5 stars because the shells themselves were so awesome. I will definitely make this recipe again!
Artichoke, Spinach, and Feta Stuffed Shells
To fill the shells, simply spoon the cheese mixture into a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; squeeze out the air. Snip a one-inch hole in one corner of the bag, and pipe the filling into the shells.
Yield: 5 servings (serving size: 4 stuffed shells)
