Tasty Taco Mac image

My son loves this...he'll eat it till it's gone...lol! It's a lot like Goulash...add condiments, such as sour cream, extra onions, jalapeno slices etc... My son prefers it right from the pan, the way it is...you could serve it with a simple salad, and some crusty bread, and you'll have one tasty meal. Even better...

16 oz cooked and drained - not rinsed, pasta, your choice - I used a blend

1/2 - 3/4 c green bell or jalapeno pepper, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Cook your pasta as stated on box or bag, drain - don't rinse.
  • 2. In a large skillet, brown ground beef, peppers and onions, until beef is no longer pink, and veggies are soft. Drain
  • 3. Add 1 1/2 packages of taco seasoning and 1/2 cup water. Simmer for a few minutes. (You can add 2 whole packages of seasoning if you wish for more taco flavor. think 1 1/2 is just right.)
