Enchilada Pasta
Ingredients
- 1 lb. Ground Beef Turkey, or Chicken
- 1 Onion chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 – 2 teaspoons Cumin to taste (I lean towards the 2)
- 1 can diced Tomatoes I often use fire-roasted
- 4 ounce can diced Green Chiles
- 28 oz. can Enchilada Sauce
- 12 oz. pkg Pasta
- Shredded Jack and Cheddar Cheese
- Sour Cream
- Olives
Instructions
First, brown the ground meat with the chopped onion. Drain off any excess grease if necessary.
Add the garlic powder, cumin, and green chiles. Stir for a moment. Add the diced tomatoes and enchilada sauce. Simmer for 5-10 minutes on medium-low heat.
Cook the pasta while the sauce is coming together.
Add the pasta to the sauce and stir well. It is ready to serve or you can simmer a few more minutes.
Dish some Enchilada Pasta on a plate. Everyone can top with as much (or little) cheese, sour cream, and olives as they like. That easy.
Notes
- I like to use Veggie Penne pasta.
