Baked Stuffed Shotgun Shells (Page 2 ) | March 6, 2025
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the manicotti shells according to package instructions, but reduce the cooking time by 2 minutes to ensure they are slightly undercooked. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked ground beef, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Carefully stuff each manicotti shell with the beef and cheese mixture.
Wrap each stuffed shell with two slices of bacon, ensuring the entire shell is covered.
Place the bacon-wrapped shells in a baking dish and pour the marinara sauce over the top.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the sauce is bubbly.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
