Mexican Stuffed Shells

Not your regular Italian stuffed shells! Easily doubled for a pot luck dinner…it’s a great crowd pleaser!

This recipe was very good. I omitted the green onion and sour cream. I added grated cheddar cheese to the top on the last ten minutes of baking. Also, I may have lost my mind

I made these tonight with plenty of leftovers…I really wanted to like this recipe however it just lacked flavor nothing special. If I make it again I will add cumin to the meat and maybe some black olives.

This recipe was yummy. I think that if I were to make it again I would not bake it for 40 minutes. The shells were a little crispy. I guessed and put the oven at 350 since it was not noted in the recipe. Also, I will put tomatoes on top next time!

Fantastic!! Although this recipe did NOT need changing I did make a few and I am simply noting them here so I will know what I did for next time. And there WILL be a next time! Instead of the refried beans, I added 4 oz. of low-fat cream

8 oz Jumbo shells

1 pound of Ground beef
