Ingredients

- 1 28 oz. can Enchilada Sauce
- 1 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
