Taco Pasta

My hubby likes those Hamburger Helpers and I just can't stand the taste of them. Maybe its one of the preservatives they put in it, but they always have such an odd awful taste to me, but like I always do I find some way to compromise. I decided to find one that was still inexpensive, but hopefully yummy and as easy as a hamburger helper! This one was yummy thankfully and even I enjoyed it!

Taco Pasta

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 package (1-1/4 ounces) taco seasoning
  • 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 1 package (8 ounce) shell macaroni, cooked and drained ( I used a gf brown rice pasta)
  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
In a skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat. Drain and add taco seasoning, tomato sauce, and green chilies. Stir in cooked macaroni. Place in a 9×13 pan. Top with cheese. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until heated through.
