8
oz uncooked jumbo pasta shells (about 24 shells from 12-oz box)
1
lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef

Preparation
Heat oven to 350°F. Cook and drain pasta shells as directed on box.
Meanwhile, in 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Add taco seasoning mix, crushed tomatoes and 1 cup of the shredded cheese; stir well until cheese is melted.
Fill each pasta shell with about 1 tablespoon beef mixture; place in ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish. Top filled shells with plum tomatoes and chopped cilantro; sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese.
