  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 pound ground beef

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. 
  • Combine the beef stock with 32 ounces of water and cook the shells in it according to package directions.  Reserve 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water.
  • In an oven proof skillet (see note for alternative), melt the butter, cook the garlic clove for thirty seconds, then add the bell pepper and onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add in the ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook through. Drain the grease, then return to heat and stir in the cream cheese until melted.
