    TACOS IN PASTA SHELLS

    1 12-oz. package jumbo pasta shells, 18 to a package
    2-1/2 lbs. ground beef or mixture of ground beef and ground pork
    2 3-oz. packages cream cheese, cubed
    2 tbsp. chili powder
    salt to taste
    1 large onion, diced small
    sauce:
    2-1/2 cups tomato sauce
    1 cup canned, chopped green chilies
    1 package taco seasoning mix
    1/2 tsp. salt
    2 cups shredded pepper-jack cheese
    Cook pasta, when done transfer shells to ice water with slotted spoon.
    Brown meat and onion until there's no more pink showing in meat, stirring
    to crumble, drain well. After meat is drained, place back in skillet, add
    cubed creamed cream, chili powder and Salt. Simmer 5 minutes stirring.
    Let cool until you can handle filling. Fill shells with filling using
    your fingers. Place meat side up in a 13x9x2" baking dish you have
    sprayed with non-stick spray. In small saucepan, cook together sauce
    ingredients on simmer for 10 minutes. Pour over shells. Cover with foil.
    Bake in preheated 350 degree oven 30 minutes, remove foil and sprinkle the
    cheese on top of shells, return to oven for 10 minutes uncovered.
