The recipes calls for jumbo shell pasta but they were no where in sight, so I got the next best thing. They actually worked perfect because we ended up using a plastic bag as a pipping bag to fill them in.
These came out absolutely perfect, they had tons of flavor and overall great! My sister and I loved it so much we ended up finishing the whole thing before we could offer my parents, oh well! This dish is perfect if you're having friends over who aren't vegan because the consistency of the filling is similar to cheese, so it's a win win.

Those stuffed shells look so yummy! I definitely have to try this recipe. Italian dishes are so easy to veganize and my all time favorite is eggplant parmesan.
