Taco Mac & Cheese

March 2nd, 2010 · No Comments

Who doesn’t like tacos?  Well, there might be a few people, but, for the most part, burritos, enchiladas, chili with beef or chicken have almost become mainstays in the American diet. We love the spices and the combination of flavors. It’s kind of like comfort food with a kick.  The following recipe combines ground beef, turkey or chicken with your favorite boxed mac and cheese to make a quick comfort dish at home.  Add some shredded lettuce and tortilla chips with your favorite salsa and you have a complete meal!

1  pound ground beef, turkey or chicken
1 - 1.25 oz. package of your favorite taco seasoning mix (3 tablespoons)
1 - 6 to 7.25 oz. box of mac and cheese, prepared according to package directions
1/4 cup of your favorite salsa
1/4 cup sour cream or yogurt
1  cup shredded taco cheese

In a medium skillet, brown ground beef, turkey or chicken until cooked through and no longer pink.  Drain excess grease. Stir in taco seasoning mix.  Add prepared mac and cheese, salsa and sour cream or yogurt.  Heat through.  Garnish with shredded taco cheese to serve.  Makes 4-6 servings.  Enjoy!
