Taco Filled Pasta Shells

12 ServingsPrep: 20 min. + chilling Bake: 45 min.
Ingredients

* 2 pounds ground beef
* 2 envelopes taco seasoning
* 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, cubed
* 24 uncooked jumbo pasta shells
* 1/4 cup butter, melted
*

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS (for each casserole):
* 1 cup salsa
* 1 cup taco sauce
* 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
* 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
* 1-1/2 cups crushed tortilla chips
* 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
* 3 green onions, chopped

Directions

Strawberry Cheescakes

* 3 ounces of cream cheese, softened for 10 seconds in the microwave
* 3 tablespoons strawberry jam
* A few sheets of graham crackers, broken into squares or rectangles

Mix the softened cream cheese with the jam. Spread a little of the mixture on top of each graham cracker. Either eat right away, or chill for 30 minutes. The grahams will soften and become more like a cheesecake crust, and the topping will firm up.

Kids can help: Break up grahams, stir cream cheese and jam

Extras: Use different flavors of jam, top with a slice of fresh strawberry
