Ingredients
  

12 oz spaghetti

1 lb ground beef (or turkey)

1 small onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 packet taco seasoning

14 oz diced tomatoes (with green chilies for extra kick)

1 cup beef broth

1 cup kidney beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup corn, frozen or canned

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup sour cream (for serving)

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional toppings: tortilla chips, avocado, jalapeños

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Brown the Meat: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef (or turkey) until no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain excess fat if necessary.

      Sauté Veggies: Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the meat. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

        Season: Stir in the taco seasoning, mixing well to coat the meat and onions.

          Add Saucy Goodness: Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and beef broth. Bring to a simmer, then add in the kidney beans and corn. Let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes to combine flavors. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Mix with Spaghetti: Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss to combine everything until evenly coated with the sauce.

              Cheesy Finish: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, cover with a lid, and let it heat through for about 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

                Serve: Spoon the Taco Spaghetti into bowls and add a dollop of sour cream on top. Garnish with fresh cilantro and any optional toppings of your choice.
