I was first inspired by her Spinach Stuffed Shells recipe. I loved the Stuffed Shells that they served in my elementary school lunchroom and my mom never made them at home. Anxious to relive those childhood memories, I promptly bookmarked her recipe.
I was not into the whole rolling lasagna noodles. Instead, I decided to follow her Vegetarian Lasagna Rolls with Butternut Squash Bechamel Sauce recipe almost to the T but used the filling in stuffed shells instead of rolling it in lasagna noodles.
The only thing, I would do differently when I make this recipe again (and yes, this recipe has been added to our list of staple dinners) is I will add a little salt to the Stuffed Shells filling. I substituted Chicken Rub (because that is what was in our cabinet) for Poultry Seasoning and I don't think it was salty enough.
The only other substitution I used was Pumpkin Pie Spice because I could not find the Nutmeg in our cabinet. This is a common problem in our corner spice cabinet and its organization has crept its way to the top of my To Do List.
This recipe is a must try. It was super easy and not too lengthy. Start to finish, this recipe took me 45ish moments. I put the water on the stove for the Shells right before I started making the Stuffed Shell filling and Butternut Squash Bechamel. The Squash is a great fall flavor twist to a classic recipe and it is super easy when using the frozen stuff.
