Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz spaghetti
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or 2 tbsp homemade blend)
  • 1 can Rotel tomatoes (diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained)
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess grease.
  • Sprinkle taco seasoning over the beef and stir well to coat.
  • Add Rotel tomatoes, beef broth, and tomato sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
  • Break the spaghetti in half and add it to the skillet. Stir to ensure the pasta is fully submerged in the liquid.
  • Cover and cook for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spaghetti is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  • Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top, cover, and let the cheese melt for 2–3 minutes.
  • Garnish with diced red onion, fresh cilantro, and additional toppings if desired.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • For extra heat, add some jalapeños or chili powder.
  • You can use any type of shredded cheese based on your preference.
