Thank you!! I really dont have anything specific in mind just easy recipes (no fish) I should go and get some recipe books also. I feel like since I am always in a rush I cook whatever is quick and it is usually not so good for you. Thanks again!!!!

Stuffed Shells

1 tsp table salt
1 tsp garlic powder, or to taste
1 Tbsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp black pepper
3 cup canned tomato sauce

- Mix together cheeses, salt, garlic powder, oregano and pepper.
- Spread a few spoonfuls of tomato sauce on bottom of a 9- x 13-inch baking dish.
- When cooked shells are cool enough to handle, fill each shell with cheese mixture and place in baking dish. When all shells are in dish, spoon remaining tomato sauce over shells. Cover pan and bake for 20 minutes. Yields about 4 shells per serving.
