I can't wait to try this! YUM!
I LOVE tacos...so I will be trying this one out for sure...maybe next week. Do you think it would freeze well, Allison?
I do think it would freeze well!
let me know what yall think!
Allison, I love you! My family asked me to tell you THANK YOU! It was soooo delicious! Cream cheese makes everything better!
We used ground turkey instead of hamburger. And I added some onion. And I used manicotti instead of jumbo shells due to miscommunication with Brad. And I didn't use very much taco sauce because Brad got the hot kind and Jaden doesn't like spicy. Having said all of that, IT WAS SOOOOO GOOD! There was only 1 shell left! And Jessi, it would be great to double and freeze one! But I wouldn't freeze it with the cheese or the chips. I'd add that at the end. But that's me...
Anyway, THANKS ALLISON!
It's a great night when *everyone* enjoys and eats dinner! I'm SO glad to hear that it's a good meal to freeze...when I make it next week, I'll just make 2 8x8 (instead of one 9x13) and freeze one (leaving the cheese and chips till reheating).
