How to make Taco Stuffed Shells:
Start by boiling your shells according to package direction once cooked drain and set aside. In a skillet cook your ground beef (or ground turkey) then add taco seasoning, salsa, and cream cheese. Allow it to cook together until cream cheese has melted and all ingredients are well combined. Last I mixed in green onions then filled my shells. Place them in a casserole dish, top with cheese and bake. Once done they are ready to serve.

One of my favorite recipes! I made these a few months ago. My family devoured them!
So happy to hear that!
The filling is delicious! But without a sauce to pour over the shells while the bake, I found them kind of dry. Next time I think I'll make a cheddar sauce with milk or cream and try that poured over the shells and then top with cheese!
YUM!! These look delish!! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
OK, will have to try this baked deliciousness. I found your recipe over at Cast Party Wednesday. I host Tickle My Tastebuds Tuesday and would love it if you would come over and share this recipe. Have a wonderful day!

Yum!!!! We do these at our house, and in addition, we cook them in a pan of salsa so the salsa is nice and warm and ready to dip once they're done.
Yep! I'll be making this one. Thanks so much!
