Mexican Stuffed Shells - If you love Mexican food and love food that reheats well for leftovers, then try these simple, yet delicious Mexican Stuffed Shells. A perfect main dish recipe!

Provided by Janelle

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

25 jumbo pasta shells
1 lb ground beef or turkey
1 package taco seasoning or 2 Tablespoons of your own homemade
1 1/2 cup salsa (we like black bean & corn salsa)
4 ounces of cream cheese (1/2 a block), room temperature.
1 cup red enchilada sauce (or more per taste preference)
1 cup Cheddar cheese
1 cup Monterrey Jack cheese
Sour cream (optional)
Avocado (optional)
Black Olives (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350*F
  • Cook sells according to package directions. You'll want to make about 25 of them.
  • While shells are cooking, in a separate skillet, combine ground beef, taco seasoning and salsa. Cook until beef is cooked through.
  • Add cream cheese to beef and mix well. Continue mixing until cream cheese is melted and well combined with beef mixture.
  • Shells should be done right about now. Lay sells out individually on a plate or rack so they don't stick together.
  • In a 9x13 baking dish, pour 3/4 cup of enchilada sauce onto bottom of the dish.
  • Stuff shells with beef mixture and put them into the pan, keep them close!
  • Once pan is full, drizzle remaining 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce over shells and top with cheese.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and shells are hot.
  • Top with sour cream, avocado, olives or additional salsa.
