This is a recipe that I came up with on the spur of the moment. My family, especially my 2-year-old, loved it! Very kid-friendly. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream and shredded lettuce, if desired.
This is even better than you could ever think it is! I love the creamy cheesy layer between the pasta and the taco meat mixture. The corn and crunchy chips on the top add great texture.
i made this “as is” for my family tonight it was so great we all loved it will make it a regular! Thanks
The whole family loved it! Next time I plan on adding chilies to spice it up.
The creamy layer made this dish for my family. 4 happy kids and 1 happy hubby! Will make it again when I have extra taco meat.
