My boyfriend asked me the other day if we could try making stuffed cannelloni – I said sure babe! Let’s try making stuffed cannelloni. So the hunt began for the perfect stuffed cannelloni recipe. Had I ever had stuffed cannelloni before? Absolutely not. Did I know what was supposed to go in stuffed cannelloni? Absolutely not. I found stuffed cannelloni recipes with spinach and ricotta cheese, and recipes with ground beef. So I said “let’s try it all!” Thus I bring you my stuffed cannelloni recipe with spinach, beef AND ricotta cheese. Because why not?

p.s I feel as though this would taste just as good and be a lot easier to make as a lasagna, because stuffing these cannellonis isn’t exactly easy and it’s very time consuming. So, well this stuffed cannelloni recipe is delicious, I won’t be making it again any time soon. Because ‘aint nobody got time for that.
