One Pot Enchilada Pasta

This was my favorite dish from The Week of Trying One Pot Meals. I could have eaten the entire pot. By myself. Enjoy!





2 tbl. olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
1/2 small onion, diced
1 1/4 lb ground beef
1 taco seasoning packet
2 c chicken broth
1 19 oz. can red enchilada sauce
2 1/2 c dry rotini pasta
2 c shredded cheese
green onions, diced
sliced black olives

In a deep skillet or a pasta pot, warm olive oil and saute the onion & garlic. Add in the beef and cook until brown. Drain, then stir in the taco seasoning. Add pasta, broth, and enchilada sauce into the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer with the lid on for 15 minutes. Remove lid and let cook for about 5 more minutes. Take off the heat and stir in 1 c cheese. Add the rest of the cheese to the top and cover to melt. Garnish with green onions & olives.
