Taco Spaghetti

“Quick note about this recipe...it's supposed to be made with spaghetti, but I had three half-empty boxes of random pastas in my cabinet, so I used them all. Sure, it's sloppy looking, but pasta is pasta, it tasted just fine. You go ahead and use whatever you prefer, don’t really matter.” Mercedes

Ingredients:

½ package spaghetti (or any pasta you may have)

1 lb. ground beef (or turkey)

1 large onion, chopped

¾ cup water

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

1 can whole kernel corn with peppers, drained (11 oz)

1 cup sliced pitted black olives

1 cup colby jack or cheddar, shredded

½ cup salsa

1 can diced green chili peppers (4 oz)

Optional:

Shredded lettuce

Tortilla chips

Tomato

Sour cream

Directions:

Heat oven to 350°F and cook pasta according to package directions.

Drain.

Meanwhile, in a 12-inch skillet, cook beef (or turkey) and chopped onion until meat is brown.

Drain.

Stir in water and taco seasoning.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat.

Simmer uncovered for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in cooked pasta, corn, olives, half of the cheese, salsa, and green chili peppers.

Transfer mixture to lightly greased 2-quart round casserole.
