Baked Stuffed Shotgun Shells | March 6, 2025
Baked stuffed shotgun shells, also known as bacon-wrapped manicotti shells, are a delightful fusion of Italian and American cuisines. This dish combines the comforting flavors of stuffed pasta with the irresistible crispiness of bacon. It’s perfect for those looking to impress at a dinner party or simply wanting to indulge in a hearty meal. The origins of this dish are rooted in the creativity of home cooks who sought to elevate traditional stuffed pasta by adding a crispy, smoky twist. The result is a dish that’s both visually stunning and incredibly satisfying.
This dish pairs wonderfully with a fresh green salad dressed with a light vinaigrette, which helps to balance the richness of the bacon and cheese. A side of roasted vegetables, such as asparagus or Brussels sprouts, also complements the flavors beautifully. For a complete meal, consider serving it with a crusty loaf of garlic bread to soak up any extra sauce.
