in a bowl combine ricotta and grated romano cheese (this is a matter of taste, if you prefer, use grated parmesan cheese). in a pot of boiling water, cook half the shells you are going to use, al dente. drain and plunge into cold water. dry (don't be obsessive). i use a cake decorating bag with the biggest opening, fill it with cheese mixture, then pipe the filling into each shell. you can use a teaspoon. as you're filling the shells, cook the second batch of shells.
in your baking dish, lay a bed 1/2" of tomato sauce. place your shells opening up in the bed. cover baking dish with foil. bake 350F 1/2 hour. take off foil. sprinkle grated mozzarella over shells. spoon sauce lightly over shells. place back in oven 10-15 minutes. serve hot

I mix ricotta cheese, oregeno, a little cottage cheese, and chives. Then stuff the shells with the mixture. Put in a baking dish and the cover with your favorite red sauce and mozzarella. Bake at 425-450 until the mozzarella is light brown. You can put meat in your sauce if you choose, it is great with a sweet italian sausage!!

Ricotta, spinach and bacon! Make a bechamel sauce with nutmeg and it will be perfect.
