Spaghetti Tacos

This recipe was the request of my nine year old iCarly fan. If you don't know who iCarly is, you clearly don't have a daughter between the ages of six and ten. It's a program on Nickelodeon about a girl named Carly who creates an internet show called (you guessed it) iCarly with her friends. At some point on this show, spaghetti tacos are introduced. Don't ask me how or why, I have no idea, nor do I care to find out.

So, my daughter asks me if we can have spaghetti tacos for dinner one night and my response was, "Well, which do you want? Spaghetti or tacos?" Of course, she then thought I was the most uncool mom on earth for not knowing what spaghetti tacos were. I consider myself fairly adventurous with my families meals, so I decided, what the hell. I know you're thinking this combination sounds beyond strange, and I completely agree. If you can get past the carb overload, you will be shocked to learn that these are actually not as horrible as they sound!
 
 
The best part about this meal is that you can likely squeeze two dinners out of it! I made regular old spaghetti one night and then a couple nights later we reheated it and turned it into spaghetti tacos. I love two meals for the price of one!

There are no exact directions to follow here. All you need to do is fill the taco shells with some spaghetti and top with cheese! Pop them in the oven for a few minutes to melt the cheese.
