Which Brands Did I Use For This Chicken Parmesan Stuffed Shells?

Sometimes when it comes to Semihomemade recipe that use packaged foods to create meals, the brands of items can make or break a dish. I don’t think this ALWAYS happens but I do know that not all packaged items are created equally.

breaded chicken tenders, cooked and diced – Food Lion Breaded Chicken Tenders

These are some of the chicken tenders that I liked to use for these stuffed shells. However, you could also use breaded chicken patties, or breaded chicken tenders. Just make sure that they are cooked and diced into bite size pieces.

large or jumbo pasta shells – Mueller’s Jumbo Shells. These are just the ones I grab.

pasta sauce – Hunt’s Traditional Spaghetti Sauce but use your favorite

ricotta cheese

egg – from our chickens but store bought it fine haha. (I feel like Ina Garten saying that)

Italian seasoning – just the store brand I have in the pantry

mozzarella cheese – Kraft or store brand is fine

parmesan cheese– Kraft or store brand is fine

parsley for garnish – fresh or dried will work
