Make Ahead Chicken and Broccoli Stuffed Shells

Pasta dishes are a hot favorite in my kitchen. I love to assemble these, or any,  stuffed shells in advance, then cover and chill. On a busy day I can pull them out of the fridge top them with Alfredo sauce and mozzarella cheese, then bake. While they’re baking I have time to put a salad and garlic bread together. A terrific time saver, and budget friendly too. On Italian night or an night when you’re in the mood for pasta these Chicken And Broccoli Stuffed Shells With Alfredo Sauce will do the trick.

      That depends on appetites. You should allow at least 3 stuffed shells per person more if they’re big eaters.

    This one’s going into the “to make” folder, Melissa. Looks delicious! I could spend a month stuffing shells different ways and never have a bad dinner.

      You could use a cheese sauce, if you prefer.
