With summer break coming to an end soon I thought it was the perfect time to share this delicious One Pot Hamburger Taco Pasta that's a favorite in our house when we need a quick and easy dinner recipe.

Taco Pasta is done in under 30 minutes and a favorite one pot dinner which I love, because the less pots to clean the better especially during the busy school week. It's loaded with plenty of ground beef, macaroni noodles, corn, peppers and greek yogurt in a cheesy taco seasoned sauce.

It's delicious plain but we like to add diced avocado, diced tomatoes, and chopped cilantro after it's cooked to really kick it up a notch. The condiments can also be served on the side so everyone can choose what they like.

According to Colt who usually calls dibs on the leftovers it's super delicious the next day too!

Here's how to make this easy One Pot Taco Pasta Recipe:

First you'll need to melt 1 tablespoon Butter in a large pot with a lid.

Add:

• 1/2 whole Diced Onion
• 1 clove Minced Garlic

Sauté until onion and garlic soften and become fragrant.

Add 16 ounces Ground Beef. Break ground beef up and cook until brown.

Add to pot:

• 1 whole Diced Bell Pepper
• 1 whole Diced Poblano Pepper
• 1 whole Diced Jalapeño (Remove Seeds for less spicy)
• 1 tablespoon Tomato Paste
• 1 package Taco Seasoning

Mix until well combined.

Stir in:

• 4 cups Low Sodium Beef Broth
• 16 ounces Elbow Macaroni
• 1 cup Whole Milk

Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cover. Cook for 11 minutes and add 1 cup Frozen Corn.

Cook 3 more minute until pasta is tender and corn is warm.

Remove from heat and stir in:

• 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt or Sour Cream
• 12 ounces Mexican Style Cheese Blend

Mix until well combined.

You can serve One Pot Taco Pasta plain but we really like to top it with or serve on the side to top your own:

• 1 whole Diced Avocado
• 1 whole Diced Tomato
• 1/4 cup Chopped Cilantro
• Additional Grated Mexican Style Cheese Blend like Monterey Jack and Cheddar Cheese

Homemade Taco Pasta Helper is a favorite quick easy dinner I hope you love as much as we do!
