Spinach Beef and Bacon Stuffed Shells

This recipe is great for a week night meal, full of nutrients and relatively easy to make. Considering on-hand ingredients, it is easy on the wallet as well. The filling boasts a healthy dose of spinach and three cheeses, including Cottage, Mozzarella and Parmesan. A small amount of cooked crumbled bacon adds depth to the flavor profile as well as subtle smokiness. The sauce can be home made or store bought, depending on your time constraints and it can be prepped ahead of time and baked when ready. The family received this recipe well, including my nephew and his little girl, Saniah, she is 9 months old! My 8 year old Bronwyn loved them too.
