Stuffed Shells (Partially from Leftovers)

This one I threw together the other night. It is nothing fancy.

jumbo shells (.99)

water

pasta sauce (.99) (or 1 small can tomato soup mixed with 1 can water – .59) I did half with sauce have with soup.

cottage cheese (1.29)

shredded mozzarella cheese (leftover from pizza night, about 1/2 bag)

shredded mild cheddar cheese (leftover from pizza night, about 3/4 bag)

a little less than 1/2 pound browned ground beef (leftover)

leftover pepperoni

Mix all of the cheeses together.

Fill shells with the cheese and place in two baking pans.

I mixed two different sauces up, though you may choose to use just one. 1. pasta sauce, half of the ground beef and half of the pepperoni, and 2. Soup mixed with the can of water and the other half of the meets.

I poured 1 sauce over 1 pan of shells, and 1 sauce over the other.

I baked this for about 40 minutes at 375*.

I used foodstamps to purchase these foods, so I did not pay tax:

___

$3.86 split between 3 meals = $1.29 per meal

3 people ate at two of the meals, and 4 people ate at 1 meal.

So that is .39 per individual meal.
