Fiesta Pasta Skillet

This is just a recipe that came to mind when I was going through the freezer and saw the amount of ground beef and ground turkey I have left from taking advantage of such amazing shopping deals. You can always add things to this recipe or take away. I'm going to make it for dinner tonight as Abbey loves anything with a "Spanish Flair"!

Ingredients:

- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles (think Ro*Tel)

- 1 box bow tie pasta (you can use less if you don't want a ton of pasta in the mix)
- 1 onion
chopped
- 1 can black beans

- 1/2 jar queso - (I'm using Newman's Own because I had a
coupon for it)
- 1/2 jar salsa


Directions

- Bring water to a boil for pasta and cook pasta according to package instructions

- While the pasta is cooking brown the ground beef in a large skillet. When the ground beef is done browning, drain the beef and return to the skillet.

- Add the can diced tomatoes with green chiles, 1/2 jar of queso and 1/2 jar salsa to the ground beef and mix.

- Drain the bow tie pasta and add to the skillet. Mix in the pasta until it's well coated.

- Serve right from the skillet.
