I love shortcuts when cooking, so I was a big fan of the Kraft Fresh Take line. And I was pretty disappointed when they continued it. I’ve updated my recipe for stuffed shells to replace the Fresh Take kit.

Mac loves pasta in every shape, form, or fashion. And he really loves pasta stuffed with cheese. Stuffed shells have found their way into our regular meal rotation because this recipe feeds a lot of people. You make it once, and you have leftovers for the rest of the week.
