Cheesy Taco Spaghetti

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook spaghetti for 1 minute less than the package states. Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water before draining.

Step 2

While the spaghetti is cooking, add the ground beef to a large skillet over medium heat and crumble the meat as it cooks.

Step 3

Drain the grease and season with the taco seasoning. Add 1/4 cup of water (as called for on the taco seasoning), the cream of chicken and tomatoes. Stir well to combine.

Step 4

Add the Velveeta and continue cooking over low heat until the cheese has melted. Stir in 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water to thin the sauce.

Step 5

Pour the cheese sauce over the spaghetti and add to the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

Top with the shredded cheddar.

Step 7

Bake for 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Step 8

Sprinkle with cilantro before serving.
