Ingredients

1 pound ground beef lean
1 orange bell pepper chopped
1 poblano pepper chopped
1 small sweet onion chopped
2 Tablespoons Taco seasoning
10 ounces tomato soup condensed, canned
1 teaspoon Red Chile Powder New Mexico preferred, or cayenne
1 cup milk
1 Tablespoon A-1 Steak Sauce
1 cup sweet corn frozen, kernels
1/4 cup pasta cooking water
12 ounces Spaghetti Cooked
1/2 Cup Cheddar Cheese shredded
1/2 Cup Pepper Jack Cheese shredded

Instructions

In a large skillet, brown ground beef with chopped peppers and onions, until vegetables are tender and beef is no longer pink. About 10 minutes.
Add taco seasoning, chile powder and milk and stir well. Add corn, tomato soup, and A-1 steak sauce. Drizzle in some of the pasta water as needed. I usually do 1/4 - 1/2 cup. Mix well and simmer for 15 minutes.
Stir in cooked spaghetti and shredded cheese. Simmer for about 5 minutes until heated through.
Serve with more grated cheese on top.

Notes

Make it Your Own:

Add a small (2.2 ounce can) of sliced black olives. (drained)

Add a 14.5 ounce can of Pinto beans in chili sauce. (drained)

Adjust the heat level. Swap out jalapeno peppers for the poblano peppers. Or add a shake or two of your favorite hot sauce.

Tips for Success: Use a lean mix of ground beef. There's no need for extra fat for this recipe. Save that 80-20 blend for your favorite burger.
