Stuffed shells get a turkey twist.

Jumbo pasta shells cradle a savory filling of ground turkey, celery, and sharp cheddar, all nestled in a creamy cheese sauce that bubbles golden around the edges.

Make a double batch because these freeze like a dream.

Pull one out on a busy weeknight and dinner practically makes itself.

Kitchen Tips

  • Don’t overcook the shells; they’ll finish in the oven and turn mushy if too soft
  • A splash of white wine in the filling adds depth without being detectable
  • Cover tightly with foil to prevent the tops from drying out
