VERDICT
ABBEY: I should be the one making this dish. But I think Wilma got tired of waiting since I've been sick. So she took the matters on her own hands.

I saw her prepare it and she got a hard time in cooking the shells. They were very brittle even though only a couple minutes in boiling water. But she managed to cook them perfectly.

The stuffings is a mixture of riccota cheese, spinach and mozarella.
It was delicious but I prefered its taste after overnight and reheated. The ingredients mixed well giving it a complete taste: sour, salty and sweet.
