Ingredients

18 uncooked jumbo pasta shells
1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef (90% lean)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup prepared mustard
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
Optional toppings: Shredded lettuce, and chopped pickles and tomatoes

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse in cold water; drain again.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium-high heat until beef is no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking beef into crumbles; drain. Stir in tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard and pepper until blended. Stir in 3/4 cup shredded cheese.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons filling into each shell. Place in a greased 11x7-in. baking dish.
Bake, covered, until heated through, 12-15 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese; bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Serve with optional toppings as desired.
