Shells with Crispy Pancetta and Spinach
My friends are popping out babies left and right these days, and if you'll remember I think it's fun to cook food for new mamas. Have you ever been a new mama? Feeding yourself is the last thing on your mind. Sort of kind of. Let me rephrase that... COOKING for yourself is the last thing on your mind. So last week, when my wonderful friend Katy gave birth to her beautiful little Stella Bea (in love), I decided to make her Stuffed Shells.
I used a Giada recipe, found here. The recipe calls for a white sauce, but I added a can of diced tomatoes because I like the acidity and sweetness tomatoes add to cheesy sauces. Besides, back in the day Katy and I were known to hit up an Olive Garden or two, or more, and we ALWAYS asked for a "pink sauce" with our unlimited breadsticks. True story.
crispy pancetta...
ricotta, spinach and pancetta stuffing...
white sauce...
