Turkey, Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Shells

My friend made this amazing recipe up!  It actually made me motivated to try stuffing shells with all sorts of different things!  Points plus wise, it's 2 points for 1 shell, but 5 for 2 shells, so that means every 2 shells is 5 points.  3 shells is 7 points, 4 shells is 10, and so on.  But I guarantee you will at least eat 4 of these delicious shells!  The points plus value does not include the french bread (we LOVE bread), but depending on the kind you get, ours was 4 points for 4 1/4" of bread!

I rate it 5 out of 5 stars!  And I'm not just saying that because she's my friend!
