Ingredients:
12 oz spaghetti
1 lb ground beef
1 packet taco seasoning (or 2 tbsp homemade blend)
1 can Rotel tomatoes (diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained)
2 cups beef broth
1 cup tomato sauce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup diced red onion
Fresh cilantro for garnish
1 tbsp olive oil
Directions:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the ground beef, breaking it into crumbles, and drain excess grease.
Sprinkle taco seasoning over the beef and stir to coat.
Add Rotel tomatoes, beef broth, and tomato sauce. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
Break spaghetti in half and add it to the skillet, ensuring it’s submerged in the liquid. Cover and cook for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once the spaghetti is tender, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top. Cover and let it melt for 2–3 minutes.
Garnish with red onion, cilantro, and your favorite toppings. Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips: Add a dollop of sour cream or a squeeze of lime for extra zest!
