SWEDISH MEATBALL STUFFED SHELLS (COOKING FOR 2)
This creative, cross-cultural dinner idea for two is guaranteed to get raves. Swedish-style meatballs, lightly flavored with nutmeg and allspice, are stuffed inside jumbo pasta shells and then cooked in an irresistibly creamy sauce. After baking, the dish gets topped with dill-infused toasted panko for an additional crunchy element. Serve with lingonberry preserves on the side for an extra dose of Scandinavian flavor.
