First time that we tried it. Fast and fun. The only downside for me was the taco mix was to spicy. Hubby loved it though. I love creative and fast ideas. It's amazing what people have come up with food.

Never tried Spaghetti in taco shells, but I have always ate it on buttered bread!

It's a throw off from a popular children's TV show called, iCarly. The older brother makes them on the show, and everyone sort of started making recipes for it. I'm assuming the children who watch the show asked for it. I'm not going to lie, my kids love the show and I made it a long time ago, but with regular spaghetti in the taco shells, and some shredded cheese. It's delicious. Try it. :)
