Taco Pasta

Every Thursday at our home is International Night. We rotate the type of international food every week, although Italian and Mexican are our regulars. Last night I made a new dish, Taco Pasta. While I was making it my husband kept saying it looked like beefaroni but let me tell you this tastes nothing like it! This is delish!!!!! I hope you enjoy it!

Ingredients:
•1 pound box penne noodles
• 1 pound of ground beef or ground turkey
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 package cream cheese
• 2 1/2 cups shredded cheese

Instructions:
1. Boil pasta (I cook a minute less than the recommended time) since the noodles will also cook in the oven
2. Brown the ground beef or turkey and drain
3. Mix taco seasoning and 1 cup water with the meat
4. Let simmer for a few minutes

5. Add cream cheese to the meat and stir until melted. Remove from heat

7. Pour the meat mixture on top of the noodles and mix
8. Top with remaining cheese

1 (15 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce

Directions:

1. Cook pasta according to box
2. Drain Pasta
3. While the pasta is draining, mix the two pastas in the pot

2
4. Stir in the pasta
5. Stir in the mozzarella

3
6. Pour pasta into a baking dish (I used a 9×13).
7. Cook on 375 degrees for 25 minutes
