Ingredients
1 pkg. Namaste Taco Pasta
½ lb. hot bulk sausage, crumbled
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14 ½ oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
2 cups beef broth
6 whole chicken thighs or boneless, skinless – cut up into bite size pieces
½ tsp. cayenne (red) pepper less or more to taste
½ tsp. salt
1 lb. shrimp, shelled and deveined
Directions
Cook pasta as directed. Rinse and set aside. Place chicken and sausage on bottom of 2 quart crock pot or large, deep skillet. Add all ingredients including Taco Pasta seasoning packet except shrimp and noodles. Cook on low for 4 hours. Add shrimp for the last 15 to 30 minutes. Fold in noodles and serve. Turn off heat right away when done cooking so noodles won’t begin to disintegrate. (Serves: 6-8)
*Variations: For a less spicy version you can substitute Namaste’sPasta Pisavera in place of the Taco Pasta and use milder or sweet Italian sausage.
