This baked stuffed shell pasta dish is a total crowd-pleaser. It’s cheesy, creamy, and tangy. Laden with fresh tomato sauce and cheese, this stuffed shell pasta is baked till it oozes cheesy goodness—super easy and perfect one-pot comfort food. This pasta shell recipe is comforting with Ricotta, Parmesan, and herb stuffing. It is easy to make and is always a Super hit with the kids. A few days back, I made marinara sauce from scratch, and some ricotta cheese was left after making Cannoli, so I thought of baking this mixed cheese-stuffed pasta for kids’ dinner.
