Kraft Kitchens Tips

Make it Easy

Spray foil with cooking spray before using to cover casserole. Place, sprayed-side down, on casserole to prevent sticking.

Make Ahead

Assemble recipe as directed. Refrigerate up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, bake, covered, at 400°F for 35 min. or until heated through.

Freeze Ahead

Reserve 1/2 cup of the mozzarella. Assemble recipe as directed, but do not top with the reserved mozzarella. Wrap casserole in foil; freeze. When ready to serve, heat oven to 400°F. Unwrap casserole; cover with foil. Bake 55 min. or until heated through, removing foil after 30 min. Top with reserved mozzarella; bake 2 min. or until melted.

Very good. Had several shells leftover and put in two containers to share with people at work the next day for lunch. My husband liked it so much he wanted it leftover. Was only able to share the one container with my friend who really enjoyed them. Very easy to make and we will have them again.

I never made stuffed shells with cottage cheese before. It was very easy to make and turned out quite good. The only thing I added was some garlic powder.

I'm usually not one for meatless dishes, but this was yummy! We served it with sauteed mushrooms on the side, a very nice addition.

I made this non-greasy meal with a loaf of french bread, I've been asked numerously for the recipe!

My whole family loved this! Even my 1 year old! My husband refuses to eat spinach but he ate it in this dish. He even had seconds. I will definitely make this recipe again!

It was good. I forgot to add spinach to cheeese mixture. No worries! I sprinkled the spinach on the top and added some more mozarella on top of that! Perfect!!

This was very good, but I couldn't find the jumbo pasta shells, so I used manicotti noodles, 1 box.

It was ok, I used ricotta instead of cottage. I feel it calls for too much spinach and it's overpowering with that much. My kids spit it out, I would make it again but with half the spinach and maybe some ground meat mixed in.

This is an excellent recipe if you love spinach like I do. Very easy to make as well.
