Very easy to make. Turned out awesome. My husband love it as well. It didn't take long to prepare. I did add a touch of garlic salt to the filling.

Pretty tasty, but as I'm a fan of really sharp tastes I was looking for a little more kick than this dish provides.

My husband and I loved this! We are trying to incorporate more vegetarian meals in our diet and this is a recipe I will make over and over. The only thing that I did differently was use regular cheese instead of low-fat.

I have made this recipe before and love it. This time I realised I had bought large instead of jumbo size shells, so I cooked up the shells, and mixed them with the cottage cheese\spinach mixture, layered them spaghetti sauce, pasta mix, spaghetti sauce, and cooked as recipe suggests. Great alternative, and saves a little bit of time

Took this recipe and modified ingredients. Used light ricotta cheese and fresh spinach & used pesto & garlic along with seasoning... turned out with much fuller flavor!
