Mexican Stuffed Shells by Beth

Ingredients:
1 box jumbo pasta shells
1 lb. ground beef
1/2 large onion, diced
14 oz. can fire roasted tomatoes, diced
2 T. Jackie's taco seasoning (http://freezerfriendz.blogspot.com/2015/05/jackies-homemade-taco-seasoning.html)
2 c. Mexican shredded cheese

Assembly:
Prepare pasta shells according to box instructions.  Rinse; run cold water over them; drain well.  Brown ground beef with onion until cooked; drain off fat.  Return beef to skillet and add taco seasoning and tomatoes.  (I processed the tomatoes in a blender as to not have large chunks of tomatoes).  Add 1 c. cheese to mixture.  Stuff beef mixture into shells and arrange in greased 9x13 pan.  I could fit about 24 shells into the pan.  If there is any remaining beef mixture, pour on top.  Cover tightly and freeze.  Put remaining 1 c. of cheese in baggie and freeze as well.

Serving Day:
Thaw completely in fridge.  Bake at 350, covered, for about 30-45 min (or until heated through).  Remove lid and cover with 1 c. cheese.  Return to oven and bake until cheese is melted and casserole is bubbly.
