- 1 small onion (150g) chopped
- 1 bell pepper (150g) chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 3 Tbsp taco seasoning 25% less sodium
- 1/2 tsp salt

- Add the onion, bell pepper and garlic. Cook for 4-5 minutes.
- Stir in the taco seasoning, salt, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, corn and black beans. Simmer, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.
- Add the cooked spaghetti and toss with the sauce until well dispersed.
- Stir in the cheese until melted. Remove from heat. Serve hot with toppings if desired and enjoy!
