Ingredients

  • 500 g ground beef
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • 390 g diced tomatoes , canned
  • 1 cup corn , canned
  • 226 g tomato sauce
  • 2 ¾ cups water
  • 226 g dried spaghetti
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese , grated

Instructions

  • In a pot, brown beef and onion over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes.
  • Stir in taco seasoning, chili powder, corn, diced tomatoes, water and tomato sauce, bring to a boil.
  • Now, stir in the spaghetti, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the pasta is fully cooked.
  • Sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top and serve.

Notes

  • Do not overcook! Constantly check the texture of your pasta noodles if they are already soft enough. Overcooking makes your spaghetti a soggy mass.
  • In this recipe, I used canned tomatoes; however, if you like to use fresh tomatoes choose the best type of tomatoes for your spaghetti, such as Roma; It is a fleshy and meaty enough tomato to give you the substance you need for your sauce.
