Great recipe. the shells were so yummy and was easy to make!!! Will be making again! -
What a great recipe to try! We all thought this recipe had a great flavor to it. For me this was easier to make than what I thought it would be. Looking forward to trying this recipe again. -
This was a fantastic recipe. I tried it hoping for a new way to cook ground beef and it was perfect. I served this with some garlic bread and salad and it was a hit. Plus, it tastes delicious reheated the next day if any leftovers survive the first night.

This was one delicious dinner. It was easy to throw together, and my family really enjoyed them. My youngest son doesn't care for beef, so I left a few unstuffed shells for him, but he did eat the stuffed shells and liked them, so that right there is a big plus. I have a few leftover for DH to take to work for lunch. This is one recipe that I will be making a lot from now on. In fact, I think I am making this for when my in-laws come. Thanks for your great recipe. Made for Camera less Chef #5 game. -
This is one great dish! It comes together in less than 1/2 hr. and is in the oven ready to go in no time. The thing that takes the longest is boiling the water for the pasta. I really enjoyed and will be making in the future often. I liked how the fact that the bread crumbs were added and it kind of pulled everything together. Thanks Nana! Made for Spring PAC 08.

I am a real estate agent along with my husband, Mike. I enjoy meeting people and helping them sell or find a home. I have been happily married for 27 years. We have 1 daugther and 3 grandsons. My favorite recipes are from Paula Deen. I love to cook and eat -- that is why I workout 5 to 6 times a week. I enjoy Bible study, cooking, working out at the gym and reading. My husband and I love spending time with our grandsons who live about 45 miles from us. We are quick to give Our Heavenly Father credit for all the wonderful blessings in our life.
My pet peeves are greed and people who are always late. I love this site and it is so much fun. I have met many nice chefs while participating in the contests. I think it is unfair when chefs change an original recipe and then give a low rating.
The way I will rate recipes:
5***** Delicious Recipes that we enjoyed and will want to have again and again.
4****Recipes that I would make again but make some changes.
3***Recipes that I would probably not try again without some major changes.
I will not give a 1 or 2 rating as I know that the chefs that took time to enter the recipe felt it was deserving to share. I just have different tastes than them.
