This fast and simple dinner will please everyone in the family. It's a new favorite at our house. Just make sure you use mild rotel if you have spice-y adverse kiddos in your family. Also the grated carrot and chopped onion are totally optional I just love to add a few veggies where I can.

Recipe type: Dinner

Cuisine: Mexican

Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef or turkey
• 1 large carrot gratted
• ½ a medium sized onion, chopped
• 1 can Rotel tomatoes and diced green chilies, I drain it but if you want it extra spicy don't drain it and leave out ¼ cup of the water called for in the later part of the recipe
• 1 packet taco seasoning, I use this easy Homemade Taco Seasoning Mix, see link under recipe
• 1 chicken bullion cube
• 2¾ cup water
• 8 ounces spaghetti noodles, broken into fourths
• 6 tbsp sour cream
• Tortilla chips and chopped cilantro, optional

Instructions

1. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef, onion and grated carrot until cooked, about 7-8 minutes
2. Add taco seasoning, chicken bullion cube, Rotel tomatoes and Diced green chilies, broken up spaghetti noodles and water.
3. Bring mixture to a boil
4. Cover with air tight lid, turn down to medium heat and continue to cook for 10-12 minutes or until pasta is cooked.
5. You can add the sour cream at this point and serve or you can choose to serve the sour cream separately and let people put as much as they prefer on their own portion.
6. We really like it with sour cream, tortilla chips and cilantro.
