Beef & Cheese Stuffed Shells

Well a ways down there is another Stuffed Shells recipe, and I still had half the box of Jumbo Shells leftover so I had to use them and so I threw this together. I liked this one even better!

1 lb ground beef
Jumbo shells, about 24-30
1 15oz Ricotta cheese
1 14oz Hunts Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
1 14oz Tomato Sauce
1 package shredded Parmesan cheese
olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic salt, Italian seasoning

--In the pot of water for pasta drizzle some olive oil and sprinkle in some italian seasoning and garlic salt. Cook shells til soft. Drain and rinse with cold water until cool enough to handle.

--Brown beef in skillet also with a little italian seasoning and garlic salt.
In a sauce pan pour in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, a tbs olive oil, garlic salt and italian seasoning. Simmer for a few minutes.

--In a large bowl combine ricotta, beef, handful parmessan cheese, and 1/2 the tomato mixture.

--In a 8x8 baking dish pour in a little tomato mixture in the bottom. Stuff each shell with beef mixture and arrange in dish. Top with remaining tomato mix then top with desired amount of parmesan.

Bake at 375 until sauce us bubbly and cheese is melted, 30-40 minutes.
