Como fazer Taco Stuffed Pasta Shells

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon.
Drain off any excess grease.
Add 1 packet taco seasoning mix and 1 cup water to the skillet. Stir well.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of drained and rinsed kidney beans and ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese.
Mix thoroughly.
Spread ¼ cup of your favorite salsa evenly over the bottom of two 8x8 inch baking dishes.
Fill jumbo pasta shells with the beef mixture. (You may need to adjust the amount of filling depending on shell size).
Arrange half of the filled shells in each baking dish, filled side up.
Spoon the remaining salsa over the shells.
**To Freeze (makes 1 frozen meal):** Cover one baking dish with plastic wrap, then tightly with foil. Label and freeze for up to 2 months.
**To Bake Fresh:** Cover the remaining baking dish with foil.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the shells are heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Sprinkle with ¼ cup chopped green onions and the remaining cheese.
Serve immediately with sour cream.
**To Bake Frozen Shells:** Place the frozen baking dish in the refrigerator overnight to thaw. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove the plastic wrap. Recover with foil. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
Sprinkle with ¼ cup sliced green onions and ¼ cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
Serve with sour cream.
