Gluten-free Chicken Taco Pasta is super easy to make, and the whole family will love it. One pot means not many dishes to clean when you are finished, and it is a cinch to throw together.
I'm always looking for quick and easy dinners. And I'm always running out of ideas. So I always keep looking.
I've seen lots of ideas for one-pot dinners. It is such a genius concept, you toss everything in and let is simmer together. All the flavors meld together, the pasta soaks up all of the flavors and juices.
I guess it is similar in concept to slow-cooker meals. But you don't have to plan ahead!
My family absolutely loved this Chicken Taco Pasta. All of our favorite taco flavors all cooked together and topped with cheese, sour cream, and avocado. Miss E ate her whole bowl. I think she even ate a few pieces of chicken which is a huge victory! It seems like I can't get any meat into her little body other than hot dogs. Mom win!
