Dinner just got delicious with my Green Chilie Beef Enchilada Rigatoni.

It’s always a pleasure partnering with Old El Paso to bring you Mexican-style recipes that make dinner time a breeze. It’s no secret I love putting together dinner recipes that are simple to prepare especially for busy weeknights when we’re busy getting the kids to their various activities and finishing homework. Can’t wait for you to try this Mexican style Rigatoni. So many great flavors!

For this recipe I used Old El Paso Chopped Green Chilies and Red Enchilada Sauce.

Once you’ve cooked your rigatoni, transfer to a large pot and pour in red enchilada sauce.

Add your cooked shredded beef and chopped green chilies. Stir to combine over medium heat.

Top with cheese!

Cover with lid to melt cheese and dinner is served!

So quick, so simple to prepare. Love dinner recipes like this. Hope you enjoy!
