Preparation Instructions:

• Pasta Preparation: Begin by cooking the spaghetti according to the instructions provided on the packaging. Aim for al dente texture. Once cooked, drain the spaghetti and set it aside.
• Meat Preparation: In a sizable skillet, heat the ground beef over a medium flame until it is thoroughly browned. To this, add the finely diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until they are softened, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. It is crucial to drain any excess fat following this step to ensure a less greasy finish.
• Incorporating Seasonings and Liquids: Introduce the taco seasoning to the skillet along with the undrained diced tomatoes and Rotel. Pour in the chosen broth—either beef or chicken. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing the flavors to meld together.
• Combining Pasta and Sauce: Add the previously cooked and drained spaghetti to the skillet, tossing it thoroughly to ensure it is evenly coated with the taco-seasoned sauce. Allow this to simmer for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, which helps the spaghetti to absorb the flavors.
• Adding Cheese: Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses over the spaghetti. Cover the skillet and let it cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted completely.
• Final Garnishes: Prior to serving, enhance the dish with optional toppings such as chopped fresh cilantro, sliced jalapeños, sour cream, and diced avocado. These add a refreshing contrast to the warm, spicy flavors of the dish.
