12 uncooked manicotti pasta shells
1 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
1 can (6 oz) Muir Glen™ organic tomato paste
1 package (1 oz) Old El Paso™ taco seasoning mix
1 1/2 cups water
1 package (3 oz) cream cheese, softened

2 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (10 oz)

The manicotti were soggy and the filling was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

These manicotti were a bit bland for my taste. I would add more spices to the filling next time.

These manicotti were really good. The filling was flavorful and the sauce was creamy and delicious. The only thing I would change is to use a little less salt in the filling.

A bit of a challenge to put together, but totally worth it. The slightly tangy sour cream sauce pairs really well with the Mexican filling and the cheese.
