Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 2 TBSP butter
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 green bell pepper diced
  • 2 TBSP ketchup
  • 1 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 8 oz provolone cheese cut into cubes
  • 20 jumbo pasta shells cooked
  • 1 1/2 TBSP corn starch
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

  • Start by boiling and cooling your pasta so it’s ready when you are!
  • Preheat oven to 350°
  • In a large cast iron skillet, start browning your beef over medium high heat. Sprinkle with a little salt and add the onion powder.
  • When beef is browned remove it from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, melt the butter and add the onions and green peppers.
  • Saute the vegetables for 3 – 5 minutes.
  • Add the beef back into the skillet with the onions and green peppers.
  • Add the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  • Give it a taste and adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Remove skillet from the heat and scoop spoonfuls of the mixture into pasta shells.
  • Place shells in a casserole dish.
  • Using about 1/2 of the cheese, top each shell with cubes of cheese.
  • Return the skillet to the stove. Whisk together the beef broth, milk and cornstarch.
  • Turn the heat to medium high. Add in the remaining cheese a little at a time. Whisk until cheese melts and sauce thickens a bit. (About 5 minutes)
  • Give the sauce a taste to determine if you want to add any salt or pepper.
  • Pour sauce around shells.
  • Bake for 10 – 12 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
  • Use sauce to drizzle over shells, if desired, when serving.
