Taco Pasta

Taco Pasta
Taco meat
8 oz of your favorite pasta shape 
1 cup cheddar cheese

Optional add-ins:
Sliced olives, drained and rinsed pinto, black or kidney beans, canned diced tomatoes, diced onions, sliced green onions, corn (if frozen, defrost), red or green peppers, salsa... etc.

Optional for serving:
Shredded lettuce, salsa, sour cream, diced tomatoes, diced onions, chopped fresh cilantro, sliced olives, tortilla chips... basically your favorite taco toppings.

Cook pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, heat up the leftover taco meat in a large skillet. Drain pasta and mix with taco meat and any of the optional add-ins. Sprinkle cheese on top and cover to allow cheese to melt. Serve with your favorite taco toppings.

Some notes: If you add a lot of add-ins or your taco meat is a little dry, you may need to add a splash or two of beef broth.
