Our family has been crazy about this dish lately. It’s super simple and super tasty. Baking it at the last stage adds some super cool crunch to the shells I’m most crazy about. I use organic grass fed beef and tomatoes and herbs from our garden. Last days of the garden goods, but the weather has been soo good to us this year. It’s still super warm plus the amazing colours of the fall.
