Stuffing the Shells

• In a 9×13 dish layer the bottom with enough sauce to cover
• Spoon out sausage mixture and lay on top of the sauce, cover completely(about 1/2 the mixture)
• Stuff each shell with about a spoonful of cheese mixture, I use a little more
• Place the shells on top of the sausage mixture

• Add the remaining sausage mixture over the sauce cover thoroughly
• Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and top with some parmesan and the Italian seasoning
