Рецепт Buffalo Stuffed Shells
The first time I had buffalo was at the Native American Museum in Washington DC. It was a cold March and on the menu was buffalo chili. My husband had a buffalo burger.
Both were very tasty.
I try to duplicate recipes that I like or that my husband likes. I think there are a lot of people out there who do that.
When we got home from our trip, my husband investigated. He tends to like the more exotic ingredients. To my surprise Kroger had bison meat.
I had to investigate.
I went to Kroger and saw my bison meat. Wow! It looks just like hamburger, just a little bit leaner.
I decided to make something different with it. Something I hadn't had before. To make it easy, something that had all the ingredients in my pantry.
Bingo!
I was going to make stuffed shells, but I decided to modify a few things and came up with this.
I hope you enjoy it.
