Ingredients

  • 1 can (5 oz) tuna, drained
  • 1 can (11 oz) whole kernel corn with red and green peppers
  • 1 package Tuna Helper™ cheesy pasta
  • 3 cups hot water

  • 3 tablespoons margarine or butter
  • 9 to 10 drops red pepper sauce, if desired
  • Tortilla chips

Steps

  • 1
    Stir uncooked Pasta, Sauce Mix and remaining ingredients except tortilla chips in 12-inch skillet. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally.
  • 2
    Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender. Remove from heat and uncover (sauce will thicken as it stands).

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Olé! If you keep taco ingredients on hand for quick dinners, share the toppings (sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped tomatoes, sliced ripe olives, shredded lettuce, guacamole) with this Mexi-tuna masterpiece.
  • tip 2
    Use a 3-ounce pouch of tuna for the canned; no need to drain!
