@ciao_bella   Your recipe sounds like mine, but I add two eggs to the ricotta mixture.

I never made it without the eggs.  I guess it will I turn out okay without them?

@Carmie  I do use 1 egg in the ricotta mixture.  It's in the recipe I posted.. (lol..you made me go back and check to make sure I had it typed in my recipe.)

 Many recipes, including this one,  I don't have written down on paper and have to rely on my memory when I type them up.  I also don't measure a lot, only in baking,  You'll often see me say something like 'a fist full of parsley or 'add some chopped garlic' or  'put some Smoked paprika in until it looks and tastes right'.  As a child, I learned a lot about cooking from my mother,  and that's how she did it.  You probably had a similar experience.

I must be losing my mind.  I went over that recipe a few times and couldn't find any eggs.  I just wondered how the cheese would bind without them.

Like you, I don't write recipes down.  There is no need to.  I very seldom cook an entree from a recipe.  

Thanks for your reply and so sorry, I missed your egg addition.  I bothered you for nothing.

This may just be the perfect recipe for stuffed shells! I especially like that it calls for fresh parsley, which complements the mild ricotta perfectly, adding immense flavor--and uses a minimal amount of salt. (I've tasted plenty of over-salted ricotta.)

Also, it's an easy recipe to follow, so thank you. I can't wait to try it!
