Stuffed Pasta Shells

I saw this cooked on TV a few days ago and of course I just had to make it !! I looked at a few recipes and took some from each of them and came up with this. Danny came home early and we cooked it together..I love cooking with him. And not just cause he does the dishes !!

It was so easy to make and I have some of the cheese filling left. Either gonna freeze it or make a lasagna.

Spinach, Bacon, Mushroom, Asiago,Mozzarealla, Parma & Ricotta Cheese stuffed Pasta Shells with Asiago & Parma Alfrado sauce.

Recipe

1 Box pasta shells, boiled

Filling

3 cups Ricotta cheese

2 eggs

10 OZ spinach, thawed and squeezed of all it water

5 Slices of bacon, cut up small and fried

1 PK of mushrooms, sliced and seasoned with salt & pepper,fried in the leftover bacon fat

1 Cup Mozzerella cheese grated

Stuff the shells and put in pan.

Put oven on 375 and make the sauce.

In wide pan, add butter and flour and cook for about one min. Add heavy cream and wisk till blended.

Let cook on low fire till thick, about 10 mins. Use a wide pan so it does not take too long to get thick.

Turn off fire and add cheese and stir till melted. Season with salt & pepper

Pur sauce over stuffed shells and add a little more parma & asaigo cheese on top and back till bubbly and a little browned on top, about 20 mins.

PS. I only did on pan and saved the filling in zip lock bag. Either gonna freeze it or make a lasagne with it.
