Kristophers Taco Macaroni Casserole

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I am not rating as I made too many changes. However, just in case someone is looking to decrease the the fat and calories and increase the fibre this is what I did. used lean ground beef, whole wheat pasta (penne) and low fat cheese. I made a half recipe and for two of us there was nearly 2/3 left. I think the servings per recipe is extremely generous. Served with a nice salad we could nearly get 6 servings from 1/2 casserole. used hot and spicy taco seasoning because that is what I had. I thought it was perfect, my husband thought it was a bit spicy. used diced tomatoes with peppers, onion and garlic, also because that is what I had. First, I have no doubt it would be better without my diet friendly substitutions but it was still good. I do look forward to enjoying the leftovers tomorrow. Thanks for sharing your recipe and glad that I was able to make it work for us.

    Kristopher’s Taco Macaroni Casserole , This recipe was inspired by Derf’s Belly Buster Recipe It has been heavily modified in ingredients and procedure I feel the recipe now qualifies as a new recipe Thank you to Derf for the inspiration 😀 This version of the recipe is being named for my son Kristopher ( 13 at the time of writing ) who helped me tonight in making all the revisions Thank you Honey!:D, I am not rating as I made too many changes However, just in case someone is looking to decrease the the fat and calories and increase the fibre this is what I did used lean ground beef, whole wheat pasta (penne) and low fat cheese I made a half recipe and for two of us there was nearly 2/3 left I think the servings per recipe is extremely generous Served with a nice salad we could nearly get 6 servings from 1/2 casserole used hot and spicy taco seasoning because that is what I had I thought it was perfect, my husband thought it was a bit spicy used diced tomatoes with peppers, onion and garlic, also because that is what I had First, I have no doubt it would be better without my diet friendly substitutions but it was still good I do look forward to enjoying the leftovers tomorrow Thanks for sharing your recipe and glad that I was able to make it work for us , EASY to throw together, delicious to eat I made as written, except I subbed a couple of velveeta cheese cubes (needed to be used) for the cheddar in the casserole and added some frozen southwestern veggies (corn, black beans, onion & peppers) to bulk it up a bit I still used the cheddar on the top of the casserole for an ooey gooey layer of goodness THANKS for a quick and tasty lunch! (P S This makes a LOT of food we’ll have leftovers for at least another meal Next time, I’ll halve the recipe Goes well with a crispy green salad )
