Taco Pasta? Sure, why not?

The pin doesn't actually take you anywhere, but the instructions were enough.  There isn't a name for the dish, so I'm going to call it Taco Pasta.  On my version of the pin, I added some capitalization and punctuation, which should help.  After making it, I decided that next time I would mix everything together instead of layering it.  Then, when I read the directions again, I realized it was supposed to be mixed.  Grammar, people.  Learn it, love it, live it.

So, as I said, the recipe was great all on its own.  I, of course, used ground turkey instead of beef, I used a whole bag of gigantic elbow macaroni, and I also ended up using a lot more cheese, because I used my new shredder attachment on my Kitchen Aid.  It shreds about as fine as one could get, and in the longest strings ever.  So, I couldn't really get it to sprinkle all over.

Here is what it looked like when it came out of the oven.

I decided to do what I always do to Mexican food.  I added avocado sour cream, and salsa.

Throw in the obvious side dish, broccoli with cheese, and you've got the perfect meal.  I can't wait to have the leftovers for lunch today!  **UPDATE**-Leftovers were super tasty, which is good, because it made a crap-a-load of food.
