(from Taste of Home Pasta Recipes)

ingredients
15 uncooked jumbo pasta shells
1 pound lean ground turkey or beef
1 10-ounce can enchilada sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 cup refried beans
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and rinse in cold water.  In a nonstick skillet, cook turkey or beef until no longer pink, drain.  Stir in enchilada sauce and seasonings, set aside.

Place a rounded teaspoonful of refried beans in each pasta shell, then fill with meat mixture.  Place in an 11”x7” baking dish coated with cooking spray.

Cover and bake at 350 degrees F. for 25 minutes.  Uncover, sprinkle with cheese.  Bake 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tip:  Remove pasta shells from water with tongs.  Drain any water in shells and place on waxed paper until ready to fill.
