Taco Pasta

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and cook the pasta al dente according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

While the pasta is cooking, make the taco pasta sauce. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add ground beef and sauté till no longer pink. Add in diced onion, bell peppers, corn and garlic, and sauté till veggies start to soften.

Step 3

Add in taco seasoning and rotel tomatoes, and mix well. Cook for 10 minutes.

Create a space in the middle by pushing meat mixture to the edges of the pan. Add beef broth, heavy cream, softened cream cheese and cheddar cheese to the center. Mix well until it becomes a smooth and creamy sauce. Mix in the taco meat mixture with the sauce and combine well. Taste and season with salt to taste.

Step 5

Add in cooked pasta and combine well with the meat sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, till all flavors mix well.
