Directions
Cowboy Spaghetti With Cheese Sauce – Rachael Ray, I saw Rachael Ray make this on her show and I thought it looked delicious. I made it tonight and it was OUTSTANDING. The jalapenos definitely add a lot of spice to the cheese sauce, so if you have little ones you may want to remove some of the sauce and keep it separate for them before you add the peppers. The only change I made is that I added 2 cans of drained pinto beans. Rachael says this serves 4, but I think it serves 8 easily., This is a great recipe. On Food Network the recipe just says to sprinkle the cheese over the finished product, along with the bacon and scallions, but it omits the chili powder and cumin, which I think adds a lot to the dish. So I combined them and made it easier by not making the cheese sauce and adding the chili powder and cumin. Thank You for posting., I made this recipe off of the RR website the first time and then found it on here. It is awesome, thanks for posting!
