Ingredients

– 1 pound ground beef
– 2 cups uncooked pasta shells
– 2 cups beef broth
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Creating Creamy Beef and Shells is quite simple if you follow these steps:

1. In a large skillet or pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Break it into small crumbles as it cooks.
2. Drain any excess grease from the beef, seasoning it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
3. Add the beef broth to the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer.
4. Stir in the uncooked pasta shells, ensuring they are submerged in the broth. Cover the skillet and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the shells are al dente, stirring occasionally.
5. Once the shells are cooked, lower the heat and mix in the heavy cream.
6. Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring continuously until it melts and the mixture becomes creamy.
7. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
8. Serve hot and enjoy the creamy, cheesy goodness.

These ten steps are all you need to bring this delightful dish to life.
