These Mini Taco Spaghetti Pies combine two of my favorites into one yummy dish! Tacos & Spaghetti. It is the best of both worlds! I loved the individual pies. We ate these for dinner and had the leftovers for lunch. They tasted great reheated! We just popped the leftover spaghetti pies in the microwave for a minute or two. Perfect!
