CREAMY SEAFOOD-STUFFED SHELLS

SHRIMP AND RICOTTA STUFFED JUMBO PASTA SHELLS
Found this in a local grocery store flyer. It was delicious and quite easy to make! Crab could be substituted for the shrimp, I think, and I might try that in future.

RICOTTA STUFFED SHELLS
My version of cheesy stuffed shells. I read a few recipes online, (www.cooks.com as well as recipezaar.com) then used a "frankenstein" technique to make them just like my mom does. I made my sauce kinda plain, I'm pregnant and not much for chunky stuff right now. When I'm not so picky, I will add zucchini and chunky stewed tomato. It fed 4 hungry adults and a two year old with about one portion of left overs so I would say it could comfortably feed five adults. As a side note, the sauce is a really great marinara, I have used it for meatball subs too!

AMAZING CRAB STUFFED PASTA SHELLS
I was making these for Easter this year and didn't fully like any of the recipes I found, so I came up with this one from ingredients from about 10 recipes. These are very filling, so you may want to slice in half before serving. Or, I did see some large pasta shells (not the stuffing ones) about 1/4 the size and thought these would be better.
