Instructions:
Please continue reading for the instructions.
Guidelines:
Prepare the meat: In a big pan, cook the ground beef or turkey on medium heat until it is browned and completely cooked. Remove any extra grease. Put the taco seasoning and mix it thoroughly, following the instructions on the package for adding water if necessary.
Mix all the ingredients together in a big bowl: the cooked meat, chopped tomatoes (with their liquid), black beans, corn, salsa, and broth. Stir until everything is mixed together well. Season with salt and pepper according to your preference.
Add the pasta: Mix in the raw pasta, making sure it is spread evenly in the mixture. The pasta will soak up the flavors overnight, becoming very soft and tasty.
Put in the refrigerator overnight: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or move the mixture to a sealed container. Put in the refrigerator overnight so the flavors mix and the pasta gets softer.
Bake the following day. Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) before using it. Put the pasta mixture into a big baking dish. Wrap with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Put cheese on top of the pasta and bake without foil. Put the dish back in the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Take the taco pasta out of the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Serve the dish hot with a spoonful of sour cream and a bit of chopped cilantro on top. This meal goes well with a small salad or garlic bread.
Why This Recipe is Special Saves Time: If you make this meal the night before, you can have a tasty and filling dish with little effort when you serve it. Great for nights when you’re busy or when you have visitors.
Exciting Flavors: Mixing seasoned meat with tomatoes, beans, and corn results in a tasty and flavorful combination that taco fans will love.
You can change the ingredients to match your preferences. Include diced bell peppers, jalapeños for more heat, or substitute the ground meat for a vegetarian option.
Suitable for all ages: This meal is popular with both children and grown-ups, making it an excellent choice for family meals. Moreover, the remaining food is equally delicious, which is perfect for preparing meals in advance.
Enjoy!
