One-Pot Taco Beef Pasta (Print Version)

A hearty Tex-Mex pasta with beef, beans, corn, and cheese made in a single pot.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Pasta & Protein

01 - 10.5 ounces small pasta, such as elbow macaroni

04 - 1 cup corn kernels

→ Sauce

05 - 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
06 - 2 cups chicken broth
07 - 1 cup shredded cheese

# How to Make It:

01 - Cook ground beef in a large pot over medium-high heat until browned, breaking it up as you go. Drain excess fat.
