Sausage Stuffed Shells

Preheat oven to 350ºF and fill a bowl with cold water. Cook pasta according to package directions, drain well, then place in the cold water until ready to stuff.

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it up as it browns. Add the garlic and cook for 30 more seconds. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the ricotta cheese.

Using a large spoon, fill the pasta shells with the sausage filling and arrange in a baking dish. Top the shells with the shredded mozzarella and bake for 25 minutes (if using a dark pan) to 30 minutes (if using a clear dish) or until tips of shells have started to crisp up.

Serve with a side of tomato sauce or eat plain. No silverware needed. Enjoy!
