Notes

  • Go lighter on the sauce than you think. You can always dip, but too much sauce inside will soften the shell.
  • If the spiral feels loose before baking, gently tuck the end underneath itself on the tray to keep it snug.
  • This formula works with sausage, mushrooms, olives, or hot honey ricotta if you want to riff.
