Ingredients:

– 8 oz. spaghetti

– 1 lb. ground beef or turkey

– 1 small onion, chopped

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 (15 oz.) can crushed tomatoes

– 1 (4 oz.) can green chilies, drained

– 1 (1 oz.) packet taco seasoning

– 1/2 cup sour cream

– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

3. While the spaghetti is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef or turkey, onion, and garlic, and cook until the meat is browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease if needed.

4. Stir in crushed tomatoes, green chilies, taco seasoning, and mix well. Reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. Take the pan off the heat; fold in sour cream and cooked spaghetti until fully combined with the meat sauce.

6. In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spread half of the spaghetti mixture evenly. Top with half of each type of cheese.

7. Repeat this layering process with the remaining spaghetti mixture and cheese, finishing with a nice, even layer of cheese on top.

8. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly and golden brown.
