Yesterday was one of those days that by 5 o'clock you are saying to yourself, "Seriously - It's only Tuesday?!?!" I thought we could use a fun pick me up for supper - a change of pace from the usual winter soups and hot dishes. A few years ago Keeley was in LOVE with a show on Nickelodeon called iCarly. They were ALWAYS making spaghetti tacos and raving about them. We thought it sounded interesting and pasta and tacos are two of our favorite foods so I figured we should probably give it a shot. The result - DELICIOUS! I haven't made them in a long time, so we had them last night. Our 4 year old, Kate, is the pickiest eater of the three and I had a hard time selling her on the idea but after one bite she was hooked! Best part is they are super simple to make!
If you want to give them a shot, here's how we make them!
SPAGHETTI TACOS
Take a hard shell taco, add some cooked spaghetti and top with spaghetti sauce (of course we prefer ours with browned ground beef mixed in it!) Then comes the fun part - add your choice of taco condiments! My kids like the basics - sour cream, shredded cheese, lettuce, and tomato. I, of course, can never leave well enough alone and add onions, jalapenos, and cilantro - because the taste has grown on me AND it makes the taco look prettier!
