Creamy Taco Spaghetti is so wonderfully creamy and cheesy and full of Tex-Mex flavor. Can be made start to finish in just 20 minutes.

 
Top with chopped fresh cilantro and pickled jalalpenos and you have a plate full of comfort food.
A packet of taco seasoning is a huge short-cut for this recipe. It adds pretty much all the flavor you need. I add just a tablespoon of tomato paste because a little tomato flavor is a must for me when it comes to pasta. I like to buy the tomato paste in a tube. It will keep in the refrigerator for weeks once it is opened and is great for when you need just a little tomato paste for a recipe.
The creaminess comes from a can of condensed cream of chicken soup and some Velveeta cheese. To up the cheese flavor, there’s also 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese, either Mexican cheese blend or cheddar cheese, depending on your preference. Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack would work well too.
 
To save time, while the water is coming to a boil, start browning the ground beef.
I like to add a can of black beans, but you can leave them out if you don’t like black beans. Or you can use a can of drained corn instead.

Not a very diet-friendly recipe but very friendly and economical. I like to serve...
