Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook spaghetti for 1 minute less than the package states. Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water before draining.
    • While the spaghetti is cooking, add the ground beef to a large skillet over medium heat and crumble the meat as it cooks.
    • Drain the grease and season with the taco seasoning. Add 1/4 cup of water (as called for on the taco seasoning), the cream of chicken and tomatoes. Stir well to combine.
    • Add the Velveeta and continue cooking over low heat until the cheese has melted. Stir in 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water to thin the sauce.
  • Pour the cheese sauce over the spaghetti and add to the prepared baking dish.
  • Top with the shredded cheddar.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
  • Sprinkle with cilantro before serving.

Tips & Notes:

Top your spaghetti with pico de gallo, salsa, guacamole, or your favorite taco sauce.
