    Easy Family Dinner Recipes

    Here at Bubba Pie, we are all about comfort food. To us, Comfort Food means simple, delicious and easy recipes. We like to use common ingredients that you most likely already have in your kitchen. This philosophy of making food really shines when you are looking for family dinners to make on busy weekday nights. I think a lot of us parents really try to avoid stopping by a fast food place on the way home from soccer practice. So we are always looking for quick, easy and simple meals that will feed even the hungriest of families. Right? A couple of months ago, we merged two yummy dishes together when we shared this recipe for Taco Lasagna. We thought we’d keep with that motif and do it again! So, today, we are sharing this Taco Spaghetti Recipe.

    What Is A Taco Spaghetti Recipe?

    Do we really even need to ask that question? We are simply taking the two most common family dinners and combining them into one super awesome dish. Who knew they would get along together so well? Are you ready to start cooking? Here is what you will need:

    • Ground beef
    • Small onion, chopped
    • Garlic cloves, minced
    • Taco seasoning
    • Water
    • Diced tomatoes with green chilies
    • Sour cream
    • Spaghetti, prepared
    • Velveeta cheese
    • Shredded taco blend cheese
    • Sliced jalapenos for garnish, optional

    Can You Freeze This Taco Spaghetti Recipe?

    Unfortunately, I would really hesitate to freeze this recipe. With the sour cream and all the cheese, I’m just afraid that it wouldn’t reheat well. This recipe is best served fresh, hot and the day it was prepared.

    Velveeta Cheese, Really?

    Yes. Velveeta Cheese. Trust us on this, you are gonna want to use Velveeta in this recipe. If you NEVER eat Velveeta, make this time the one exception. It just melts so perfectly in this pasta dish. Shredded Cheddar Cheese would be the only substitute, but, really, it’s no substitute in this case.

    Notes, Tips and Variations

    • IMPROVISE INGREDIENTS?- One of the really cool things about this dish is that you can fiddle around with it as desired. Some other ideas of ingredients to add would be Black Beans, Black Olives, Red Peppers or garnish options like fresh Cilantro or Green Onions.
    • DON’T DRAIN THE CAN OF TOMATOES- You will need the water that is in the can of tomatoes to cook this dish. Don’t worry about draining it. Just dump it all in there.

    I hope you enjoy this recipe for Taco Lasagna. It’s destined to be a family favorite! Please let me know how it turned out for you in the comments section.
