Taco noodle casserole is so easy to make and only uses one pot! We are huge fans of one-pot meals in our house.

Step 1: Saute the ground beef and chopped yellow onion in the Dutch Oven on the stovetop over medium heat. Halfway through cooking, add the taco seasoning and some water and saute for 10-minutes until ground beef is cooked through. While the gound beef is cooking, cook pasta.

Step 2: Add the Pace salsa to the ground beef and stir.
