Slow Cooker Taco Pasta
- 2 pounds Ground Beef, Cooked
- 1 can (10 Oz. Size) Beef Broth
- 1 can (Use The Broth Can To Measure) Water
- 2 packages (about 1 Oz. Packet) Taco Seasoning
- 1 cup White Or Sweet Onion, Chopped
- 1 cup Green Pepper, Chopped
- 4 cloves Garlic, Pressed Or Chopped
- 1 can (680ml Or About 23 Oz. Size) Tomato Sauce
- 1 package (250ml Or About 8 Oz. Size) Cream Cheese
- 6 cups Medium Sized Shell Noodles, Cooked
- 3 cups Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
- Brown ground beef in a skillet or pan until browned.
- Drain excess fat and rinse.
- Now pop that into your slow cooker.
- Add beef broth, then fill the broth can with water and empty that in the slow cooker as well.
- Add taco seasoning, onion, green pepper, and garlic.
- Now add tomato sauce.
- Give it a good stir and cover.
- Turn on low for about 3-4 hours.
- Add cream cheese and cook for another 30 minutes.
- Now you can add pre-cooked noodles and shredded cheese.
- Cook for 20 to 30 minutes more, basically until the cheese melts.
- Serve with an ooey gooey smile.
- Tips and hints:
- This is a monster size batch.
- Feel free to halve or quarter it.
- I thought I could have gotten away with half a brick of cream cheese.
- I think you could jazz this up with tomatoes or salsa (I hate both).
- Its probably good with sour cream but I hate that, too.
- You could dunk tortilla chips in it and eat it if you wanted to.
- But that is just plain gross.
- You could call a therapist for me for all my food quirks.
- I could clearly use some help!
