3 cups cooked elbow macaroni
1 pound velveeta cheese, cubed
1/8 cup 2% low-fat milk

1 package taco seasoning mix
1/2 cup sour cream

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Cook the ground beef with the taco mix and set aside.
Nuke the Velveeta with the milk, 1 minute at a time till the cheese is smooth. Add to the cooked macaroni. Add the sour cream and salsa.
Spread 1/2 of this mixture in a 8" square pan that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Top with 1/2 of the beef mixture, then spread the remaining mac and cheese over the beef mixture. Sprinkle with the crushed tortilla chips and sprinkle with the shredded cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes till the bubbly around the sides. Warning: very cheesy!

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
