Taco-Stuffed-Shells

 

Taco Stuffed Shells are a different take on the typical stuffed shell recipe.  These are filled with beef and cheese and smothered in enchilada sauce.

 

Ingredients:
1 lb Ground Beef
2 Tablespoons Taco Seasoning
1/2 Cup Salsa
1/4 Cup Water
1 Cup Cottage Cheese
2 Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided
12 oz Package Jumbo Shells, at least 21 shells
12 oz Enchilada Sauce

 

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Cook shells as per box instructions, set aside.

While the pasta is cooking, brown beef over medium/high heat in a skillet.  Drain off any excess fat.  Add taco seasoning, salsa and water.  Simmer for 5 minutes.

Mix together cottage cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese and beef mixture together in a large bowl.

Stuff the shells with the beef and cheese mixture.  Place them in the prepared casserole dish.  Top with enchilada sauce and remaining 1 cup cheese.  Bake until bubbly, about 30 minutes.

Yield: 4-6 Servings
