Is National Pasta Day And we couldn’t be more excited! Announcing our FUN collaboration with PlayMonster®, the great company behind the 2017 Toy of the Year “Yeti in my spaghetti” game. To celebrate we created yeti pasta – cute little Yeti characters! So, get ready for a fun family night playing and eating our Yeti Pasta Turkey Taco Pasta!
Let’s set the stage for a fun evening with your children or grandchildren.
Tips for a Perfect Family Game Night
- Choose a date – Choose a good time where all members of your family can play
- Decide the game – Yeti in My Spaghetti is the perfect game for all ages!
- Create a menu – Make the night special with a fun family dinner. Our Yeti Pasta pairs perfectly with the Yeti in My Spaghetti set. Enjoy our turkey taco pasta recipe or any other family favorite!
- Turn off electronics – No batteries or electronic devices are needed to play Yeti in My Spaghetti. Save them for a distraction-free night!
Dinner time with the family can be a challenge. Finding the right recipe to please everyone requires creative thinking! Also, trying to keep it somewhat healthy is another consideration. My go-to for family night is usually a Mexican or Tex-Mex theme. Who doesn’t love tacos?
Turkey is a great choice here because the seasoning really coats the meat and gives it the great flavor without the weight of the meat. Most people can’t even tell that it’s not ground beef! It will be our secret. And if you eat plant-based, replace the turkey with vegan crumbles.
The ingredients are simple, so your prep time is limited, which is also good since you’ll want to spend more time playing the Yeti in My Spaghetti game. It is a fun option for all ages. And don’t be so sure you’ll win!
How to play Yeti in My Spaghetti Game
- Silly and easy game to play!
- Place the noodles on top of the bowl and place the Yeti on top.
- Take turns removing the noodles one by one without dropping the Yeti!
- If you make the Yeti fall, you lose!
- Includes 30 Noodles, Yeti and Bowl, for 2 or more players ages 4 and up
The Yeti pasta is very cute and the little characters cook up perfectly. Everyone will enjoy seeing Yetis in their turkey taco batter. I like to cook the pasta and leave a few pieces of Yeti pasta aside to use on top of each bowl of pasta. They are also the perfect size for little fingers.
As you read this recipe, feel free to add, remove, or substitute ingredients. That’s the great thing about anything in the “taco” line… you can serve the tomatoes, black olives, cheddar cheese, French fries, and any other toppings as a side. Your family can have fun making their own turkey taco and pasta dish!
We’ve even served the turkey taco batter with crunchy tacos and flour tortillas on the side. The Pastabilities® are endless! 🙂
Have fun at your Family Game Night! We know the Yeti in My Spaghetti and Yeti Pasta set will create great memories and bring smiles to your table. The Yeti Pasta and Play Bundle is available at our website with limited quantities! This would also make a fun Christmas gift! Enjoy and tag us – we’d love to share your fun at the table!
