Taco beef pasta

Because you all loved my 6 ingredient fajita beef pasta recipe so much, I made a similar version using taco seasoning. It's ready in less than 15 mins and a simple lunch and dinner idea. It's also a great one to meal prep!

I didn't have single cream but used cream cheese instead. Was lovely, and we had it with wraps and salad. Think we'll be adding a bit more stock and maybe some passata next time ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hey Sally so I made this twice recently. Once with onion and once without, both worked well but I prefer the onion for extra flavour. I've just updated the recipe to add the 60g onion x
