Throw the spaghetti into the casserole dish first. The magic’s all in the toppings

Combining the zest of tacos with the comfort of spaghetti, Taco Spaghetti Casserole is a fun twist on your typical weeknight dinner. It’s perfect for those evenings when you can’t decide between Mexican and Italian. This dish blends the vibrant flavors of traditional tacos with the hearty presence of spaghetti, creating a one-dish meal that pleases crowds and is perfect for a family dinner or potluck.
This casserole is quite rich and flavorful on its own, but it pairs wonderfully with a light side salad dressed in a citrusy vinaigrette to cut through the richness. For an added touch, serve with some garlic bread or a side of steamed vegetables to keep things wholesome. If you’re aiming for a full-on fiesta vibe, why not whip up some guacamole and chips for starting?
