Can you share your stuffed shells/lasagna cheese recipe?
I know it's a little random. I have a good sauce recipe but want to perfect my cheese.

This is what I do. It HAS to have diced mozz...though I add more than a small wedge. 
And I agree that whole milk ricotta is the way to go. It's easy to make at home if you want to be super fancy.

This is how I make it as well.
For stuffed shells, I add chopped broccoli to the cheese mixture.

Re: Can you share your stuffed shells/lasagna cheese recipe?
Thank you! the concensus seems to be 1 egg. I wasn't sure if I should be using 2. I use a 32 oz. container of ricotta. Will def. try diced mozz. I usually use shredded.

Re: Can you share your stuffed shells/lasagna cheese recipe?
So, I don't have measurements (don't ask) but, I actually put pound cake and chocolate in the ricotta with eggs...I know, weird...It's my grandmother's recipe that I just started making, but it got rave reviews this weekend

Mine is similar but I use peccorino romano, grated mozzarella and italian parsley
