Mexican Stuffed Shells

Cheesy Beefy Taco Mixture stuffed inside Shells...hum...could it get any better? I doubt it! I came upon this recipe here and knew I HAD to make it! I used a Mexican Cheese Blend instead of Cheddar and Monterey because we ALWAYS have it on hand and I knew it'd be perfect! This was SO yummy...all Ooey Gooey and CHEESY! Fork required though!

Ingredients:

1lb ground beef
1 pkg taco seasoning
1 (4 oz) pkg cream cheese
12 large pasta shells
1 c salsa
2 c Mexican cheese blend (shredded)
3 green onions (chopped)

Preparations:

1. In a fry pan cook ground beef and add taco seasoning and prepare according to package directions. Add cream cheese cover and simmer until cheese is melted. Blend well. Set aside and allow to fully cool.
2. While burger is cooking cook the pasta shells, drain and let cool.
3. Pour salsa in the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Stuff each shell with the meat mixture. Place the stuffed shells in the baking dish.
4. Cover and bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
5. After 30 minutes, uncover, and sprinkle cheese and green onions on top. Cook for about 15 more minutes. Serve with sour cream, additional salsa, black olives or whatever you think goes good with tacos!
