It seemed like it would taste like cannelloni, and it did! One bite and I was in heaven; and there was no where near the mess in the kitchen that my old "traditional" cannelloni recipe made. I added 1/2 tsp oregano, increased the spinach to 16 oz, used extra lean (5% fat) ground beef, and a little less of the cheeses, substituting part-skim mozzarella and fat-free cottage cheese. Thanks, Barbara, for this wonderful taste trip down memory lane.

This is excellent! Husband and kids all loved it. I added 1 package of "good seasons italian seasoning" to the meat mixture, per the comment of another user. It was fantastic. One thing: you dry the noodles off a bit before stuffing them to prevent the dish from becoming soupy!

This meal is now going to become a family favorite in our household. I love that it makes a lot that I can freeze for later. Only changes I made were instead of cottage cheese, I replaced it with ricotta and I added italian seasoning to the ground turkey. This is a keeper!!! Thanks Barbara.

Great recipe! It could maybe use a bit more flavor, maybe some more garlic or some italian seasonings would help to spice it up a bit :). Instead of turkey I used 1/2 lean ground beef (93% lean) and 1/2 lowfat sausage. I also used fat free cottage cheese to reduce the fat content even more (though for stuffed shells, this was amazingly healthy). My husband loved that there was meat in the shells, and it made tons of filling, so each shell was very full. You can maybe reduce the amount of cheese on top because it comes out very cheesy, but we liked it this way. I made the filling ahead of time and refrigerated it, and it was so easy to put together! Two thumbs way up on this recipe - goes in my permanent box!

A great recipe when you have a lot of time on your hands. We substituted ricotta cheese for the cottage cheese, and it was excellent! Half of the recipe fed the two of us for a good three days.

I love to cook, and this recipe was too much work (and in my opinion, too expensive) for the finished product. We thought it was alright, but nothing special - Stuffed Shells III from this site remains our favorite.

This is a great recipe - my 5 year old asks for seconds and even thirds every time I make it (which absolutely shocked me the first time!). I've discovered it makes WAY too much for my 3-member family, so I learned to stuff my shells (or manicotti, since I've only been able to find shells once), and freeze about 2/3 of them without the sauce or cheese. Then they make a pretty quick meal later - just toss them in a dish like the recipe says, cover with marinara sauce and mozzarella, cover and bake for 45 mins to an hour, until the mozzarella is melted and bubbly. Very no fuss at that point. My family loves this recipe.

We tried this last night and I thought it was pretty good. It was funny reading through the reviews that some people were trying to put in more than 1 package of spinach into this recipe. It even made for better leftovers. I had so much that I had to use 2 9x13 dishes to hold it all. I had to give it a 3 because my husband didn't like the ground turkey (It was our first time trying it.). I think it would be better to use 1/2 the amount of turkey and 1/2 italian sausage.

This recipe was wonderful. I did change it just a little. I used Ricotta Cheese rather than Cottage and used two jars of sauce. My family likes a lot of sauce on their pasta.

I have to wonder if the 10 packages of spinach was a misprint because I don't see how you could possibly fit all of that spinach plus the other ingredients into one package of shells. Regardless, I only used one package of spinach which worked out fine. The dish was a big hit with my gang; especially my hubby who loved the fact that the shells contained meat. A big green salad and some nice crusty homemade Italian bread completed this tasty dinner. Thanks Barbara.

The taste was pretty good but way TOO MUCH Spinach. I only bought 5 packages (16oz.) of spinach and still had to discard about 2 cups. 3 packages (16oz.) would be sufficient. This should have been called spinach stuffed shells for all the spinach lovers since you don't get very much turkey or any other flavor.

These are very good. I did alter it a bit by adding non-fat sour cream (for zing) and of course I used non-fat cottage cheese to make it as healthy as it was flavorful. I agree with a previous reviewer that you need to watch the amount of tomato sauce as it will overpower the mild flavors of the filling. There is also no need for a full 8oz. of mozzarella cheese – half of that is just fine.

I planned ahead and prepared the filling a day before. It was great. As I prepared it I loved the smell of the filling and when it all came together it was great. My household loved it. This is something I'm going to have to cook more often.

The preperation took a lot longer than noted in the recipe. It was more like an hour of prep time than 30 minutes.
