I have made these several times - it is also my go-to recipe for entertaining. They are amazing! This is my one recipe my boyfriend will beg me to make. They are better than any stuffed shells I've ever had. I hate cottage cheese by itself, but it is amazing in this recipe - it gives you a lighter cheese texture - never that dried out chewy ricotta texture I've had in some stuffed shells. I usually add some spicy ground sausage meat because my boyfriend needs his meat. Sometimes I'll use 1/4 ricotta and 3/4 cottage cheese which is good, but not necessary. I cook the shells for 1/2 the time indicated on the box as they are easier to work with and will finish cooking in the oven. I tried the plastic bag method to stuff them, but I found it's easier to just stuff them by hand and get a little messy.
