Ingredients

  • 10 ounces, weight Pasta, Small Shapes
  • 1 pound Ground Beef
  • 1 whole Small Onion, Diced
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 can (11 To 14 Oz. Size) Rotel Tomatoes Or Diced Tomatoes

Cook pasta according to the package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet brown ground beef and onions over medium-high heat until cooked through. Once the meat is cooked, mix in the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Add in the diced tomatoes and taco seasoning. Let simmer over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes.

For all the great ingredients, mine was lacking in flavor and was kind of a bland color. Good flavor, just not enough of it.

I have somewhat picky kids, but knowing how they love pasta as well as tacos, I gave this a try. It was a hit and a regular dinner at our house. we love it!
