Combine two family favourites—pasta night and taco night—into one memorable meal! We simmer seasoned ground beef with spicy diced tomatoes, water, and spaghetti in one skillet for minimal fuss and cleanup. Legume-based pasta offers a protein and fiber boost, and it releases lots of starch into the liquid for a luscious creamy effect. The finished dish has a mild kick to it; for sensitive taste buds, look for mild canned tomatoes with green chiles.
