My favorite kinds of days are those where I find myself at home for the day with no plans and I can spend some time in the kitchen cooking a family favorite. Although we have been eating healthy this month I think it may be time to cheat a little bit and make one our favorite meal, stuffed shells with sausage and pepper tomato sauce!. This is a wonderful recipe fill with flavor and maybe just a few extra calories!
