Lynne’s Famous Taco Pasta
My mom has a lot of "famous" recipes, and while some are more famous than others, this one is one of my favorites! I love it because it has a lot of mix-ins, it has protein, it has a delicious light sauce, and it has corn. Sign me up for anything with corn! I will still ask my mom to make this all the time because it comes out best when it comes from her kitchen. Let us know what you think if you make it!

Notes
I prefer using Barilla protein+ for added protein. I think (low sodium) bone broth can be a great flavor addition for this, but water works just fine and is part of my moms original recipe.
