4-6
ingredients
- 1 lb ground sirloin
- 1 (12 ounce) package spaghetti
- 1 1⁄4 ounces mild taco seasoning
- 1 medium tomatoes, diced
- 1 small sweet onion (optional)
- lemon (optional)
- salt
- pepper
- 1⁄8 cup cilantro (optional)
- 8 ounces light shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 3 tablespoons light sour cream
directions
- Brown beef and add taco seasoning to mix.
- Follow the instructions on the taco mix to prepare the beef.
- Dice the tomato and add cilantro if you desire.
- Just a dash of salt and pepper, a small amount of lemon juice on the tomato.
- Dice onion and set aside.
- Take cooked spaghetti and place on platter.
- To make this dish very kid friendly, serve the taco meat on top of the spaghetti only and have everyone choose what sides they want on their entree. If you desire to make a nice presentation, add the ground beef on top of the spaghetti, then add the cheese.Then dollop or squeeze 3 table spoons of sour cream on top . Then add tomatoes and onions around the top but not over the sour cream. Sour cream can be bought in some grocery chains in squeezable bottles. If you don't have them in your area, and want to try squeezing it out verses dolloping it, either use a pastry bag with a fine tip or take a quart size baggie and add sour cream. Cut a small hole on the bottom edge to create a tip and squeeze out the sour cream. It can make great thin lines all over the entree for presentation and adds good flavor. Enjoy!

<p>I live near Dallas, Texas with my husband and 2 children. I am a very busy at home mother who actually feels more on the go than at home. <br /><br />I love all sorts of cook books however I have gotten more use out of the Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook than any other. I also love my Dallas Museum of Art's Cookbook which I got about 9 years ago. The food and presentations in that book are fabulous! <br /><br />My passions include making a warm, loving and nurturing enviroment for my family, going to church, friendships, gardening, designing indoor and outdoor spaces, cooking, listening to music, watching ballet, DWTS and dancing for exercise and above all things, Christ. <br /><br />My pet peeve is people who tell you they don't mean to be rude. <br />With comments like that, they are meaning to tell you something rude and offending. Other than that I can't think of any other pet peeves.</p>
<p>In all, my family, they are true gifts from above. I truly count my lucky stars for having such pleasant, thoughtful, generous and kind hearted children and a fantastic, gentle, honest husband who I have been married to since June 30, 1990.</p>
