I messed up pretty much everything but it still came out well! Made my own taco seasoning, used shells instead of spaghetti, sauce instead of diced tomatoes, onion powder instead of onions, Colby jack instead of cheddar, no parsley... I didn't realize that the pasta was to cook in the sauce so I pre-cooked that... ended up having to simmer the sauce for quite some time to evaporate excess water. Nonetheless, family loved it!
