Cheesy Shells

"This is a meal from my mother-in-law. She learned it when she was a bride, and it has become a real comfort food for her kids and now her grandchildren as well. It is fast, cheap, and the kids all love it."

  1. This is one of the first meals I made as a teenager. Loved it then and still love it today.I use cheez wiz in mine. Great recipe for those lazy nights when I don't feel like cooking.
     
  2. Wonderful and simple !! Garlic/parmesan seasoning added to the great taste.
     
  3. 4 stars becaucse this is so simple and versitile. I just added garlic (a must), used cheddar cheese and tabasco. Quick, easy and good. Next time I will replace one or both soups with tomato sauce, add more herbs and lots of Paramesan Cheese. Thank you Virginia.

We live in Tucson, AZ and love every second of it... even the summers! We have a first grader who loves to eat what she cooks, so that's always a good thing!
