I loved this easy recipe, and it made a ton.Here's what I did.....I browned 2# of ground round and only added about 1 cup of water with the taco seasoning, cooked it till it was all reduced as I did not want it to be watery.Also added 2 pkg. of taco seasoning because I had 16oz. of fresh angel hair pasta that I needed to use up.1 12oz. jar of salsa was added and after mixing all the ingredients together I was able to get 2 huge servings, one for the freezer and one going in the oven.I baked the casserole as directed and after 20 minutes I added more cheese and some crushed tortillas to the top and back in the oven to crisp up for a few minutes.It was wonderful, and mine was not watery in the least, very thick and gooey.The fresh pasta gave it a fluffiness that was melt in your mouth good.Very good recipe, thanks.

I am always on the lookout for great OAMC recipes and this is a great one! I had to use linguine instead of spaghetti and I also added some chopped red and green peppers and just plain canned corn. We ate one casserole last night and the other one will be waiting in the freezer. Thanks for posting.

This was good. My guys didn't leave much. I used 12 oz of spaghetti and Mexican blend cheese. That's what I had on hand. I think that next time I'll use 1 cup of water and add more if I need to. It was a little juicy for my taste. I must admit I cooked it all in a big dutch oven. I'm feeding 2 teenage boy and a hungry man. lol Thanks for the recipe.

We just loved this! I added an extra packet of Taco Seasoning, but omitted the Chili peppers because my daughter does not care for them. Served it with sour cream and tortilla chips. I also subbed a can of creamed corn as I didn't have niblets, and it turned out just great! Thanks for another winner Tish!

This was REALLY good. We all had out doubts.....it doesn't look real colorful. I omitted ONE can of corn and substituted a can of whole black beans, just because corn is so high in carbs (bad for diabetics). I think, next time, I'll add some julianned red peppers to give it some more color. This actually was pretty low-carb, the spaghetti is not the most plentiful ingredient in this. Will definitely make again. Thanks!

What a qreat twist to speghetti. I really enjoyed this alot. It's very helpful that you added the directions for reheating after freezing, that is exactly what I did. Thank you for sharing this great recipe.

That second casserole didn't last long in the freezer, that's for sure! This was great!

This stuff was amazing. I have to admit I was a little skeptical about putting lettuce on spaghetti but it works..and well. My whole family gobbled it all up. I used 1/2 pkg (450g) of spaghetti and it worked well for 1 dish. I also topped with sour cream as well as the lettuce and tomato, yummy. Thx for the recipe!

I made this today to freeze for those busy weeknights- I did take a bite of the casserole before putting them in the freezer. It tasted pretty good! Only changes were to use one can of corn, and I used a can of rotel instead of green chiles. Thanks so much for sharing!
