Cheesy Taco Pasta


I love to cook but with work and being busy at least 5 days a week quick and delicious meals are what I prefer and Cheesy Taco Pasta is a family favorite in this house. Each member of the family adds their own extras to it to please everyone.

This dish is my nod to the hamburger helper I grew up eating as a kid. While this isn’t exactly the “crunchy taco hamburger helper” because I skipped adding the tortilla chips on top, the ooey gooey meat and cheese sauce is still the same and with just a few ingredients!

Additional note: You can also freeze this pasta for a later date. I’d skip adding the cheese and when you defrost it, use a cup of chicken or beef stock. Then once warmed through add the cheese, mix and serve.



Like I mentioned above each family member adds their own twist to this dish. The different add ons include the following:
Extra Cheese
Crunchy Tortilla Chips
Corn
Salsa
Sour Cream
Tomatoes
