We made this last night and it turned out terrific. Super easy to make, as you put the filling you will find yourself trying it before you starting the stuffing of the shells. Ingredients:
8 jumbo pasta shells |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 medium onion, chopped fine |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 cups cottage cheese |
1/4-1/2 cup parmesan cheese |

1 teaspoon dried dill weed, crushed |
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1 (16 ounce) jar pasta sauce |
Directions:
1. Cook the pasta shells according to directions on box,drain, set aside to let cool.Preheat oven to 350 and coat the bottom of a 11x7 baking dish with pasta sauce, about 6-8 spoon-fulls.
