Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 pound ground beef ((chuck))
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
  • ½ cup water
  • 16 jumbo pasta shells
  • 1 ½ cup enchilada sauce
  • 2 cups cheese (shredded)

Instruction

  • Bring a large pot of water (as salty as the sea) to a boil in a large pot. Cook pasta shells per package instructions.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, in a pan add ground beef and brown. Drain the browned hamburger and return to the pan. Add the seasoning mix + ½ cup of water and allow the hamburger to simmer until almost all the liquid has evaporated and the seasoning is well distributed into the ground beef.
  • Once pasta shells are done, drain and allow to cool enough to touch.
  • Pour enough of the enchilada sauce just to cover the bottom of a 10 x 10 baking dish.
  • Stuff each shell with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture. Place shells into the baking dish open side up. When the pasta shells are all filled, evenly cover the stuffed shells with the enchilada sauce.
  • Top with shredded cheese and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until cheese is bubbling and everything is warmed through.
  • Garnish with sour cream, pickled jalapenos, green onions, and cilantro or whatever garnish you desire.
