It has great flavor and there is plenty of filling for the shells. I actually had enough filling for 20 shells and a little bit left over. My family loved it.

I like to cook some onion with oil first then add the beef.

They tasted pretty good, but it takes too much time to prepare. I didn't like having to stand there filling each shell and then you still have to bake it for another 30 mins. Also, the picture makes the shells look bigger than they really are. I think next time I'll lay lasagna noodles in the pan and just spread the beef mixture over top of those. That would make the whole process way faster! This recipe is just too time consuming and they're really not worth it.

I forgot to buy taco sauce, and used a jar of salsa instead, and I think it turned out great. I'm not sure what the cream cheese did for it. And we topped ours with a dollop of sour cream. My husband was pretty wow'ed!

Way too much chili powder! Will definitely scale it down next time, but my husband LOVED it! The tortilla chips go great with everything.

Delicious! I scaled this down to 2 servings for just me and my husband and it was a big hit. It was easy to prepare, had good flavor, and I especially like the fact that it is lower in fat. We had it last week and I am making it again tonight. This one is going into regular rotation!

This casserole is delicious! My family loves when I make this. It is a bit time consuming as you have to fill the shells, but I've received quite a few compliments when I've served this at dinner.

Very messy and not very tasty, stick with regular tacos!
