Spaghetti Tacos

Submitted by Miss_MollyB

"This recipe was actually thought of by our 7 year old son. His two favorite foods-tacos and spaghetti. So, why not combine the two? :) Enjoy!! Helpful suggestion when serving: put all ingredients on plate and then spoon or fork into taco shell."

To make this recipe not so "carby" use spaghetti squash. Kids dont know the difference because the squash takes on the flavor of what ever it is in. also add some puree veggie to the sauce like carrot or cauliflower. tomato masks it pretty well i think.

This is a recipe from the kids' show iCarly which became popular after the show aired. This was the character "Spencer"s favorite recipe. The kids like it, but the adults pretty much stay away from it because it's basically pure carbs.

I wonder if your 7 yr old son watches iCarly?! This is the older brother Spencer's favorite recipe. The episode aired on November 10, 2007 and has continued to be a standard on the show.

Good recipe. Very inventive and tasty. I decided to add the envelope of taco seasoning and it was just what the recipe needed. My kids love iCarly too and really enjoyed this meal. I think I'll make it when they invite friends over for dinner.

My kids LOVE iCarly. When I saw this recipe I laughed so hard and promptly made it for dinner. It turned out pretty good, though I think next time I might try adding a bit of taco seasoning to the spaghetti sauce, just to give it a bit more oomph. Mine turned out a little bland, though my kids loved it. I give it 5 stars for originality, fun, and child enjoyment of dinner. They each at 2. lol
