So, I found this recipe that was lactose free – however – it was full of tofu. I like to try new things, but honestly, that’s one ingredient I would buy once and NEVER, ever use again. So, I adapted it to fit things I had in my fridge. The best part? As we were eating it, my husband asked what kind of meat was in it. When I told him there was no meat, he was so impressed! Then, when I explained how to make it, he told me it was easy enough that he was excited to try and make it! So, if that doesn’t sell you on these babies – maybe that they are LOADED with veggies and good for you will! 😉

I was able to fill about 20 shells really full of the mixture. You could use less filling and fill more shells if you want!
