Cooking Up Some Family Favorites with Jumbo Stuffed Shells #recipe

by summers1405 .

As a parent, any meal loaded with veggies that the kids love is a win, and our Jumbo Stuffed Shells recipe is just the thing.

Most of the time, I have all of the ingredients for this already in the cupboard from our weekly shopping trips to Walmart. Have you ever noticed that the pasta aisle is the busiest aisle in the store?

He was abused, neglected or both before he became a part of our family. He is a wonderful dog, but can also be a moody old man if his body is hurting him. As he has aged over the last 4 years, he has actually become a friendlier, more active dog.
