I did it, I finally gave in. After months and months of begging and hundreds of half hours of iCarly, I caved. We made Spencer’s Spaghetti Tacos. But at least I added lettuce and tomato to ours.
Is this show always on in your house too? I’m pretty sure, at this point, I can recite every line from every episode. I’ll be honest, as far as Nick shows go, iCarly is heads and shoulders over the rest of the lot. That Big Time Rush show is enough to make me Big Time Rush to turn it off. Incredibly annoying! But there’s something about those iCarly kids. They’re funny, sweet, and though they say stupid and butt WAY TO MUCH (are you listening Dan Schneider????) I’d rather the kids watch them than another annoying episode of Fanboy and Chum Chum, Spongebob, or Phineas and Ferb, and I really am glad they’re over the Wiggles.
So if you’re living under a rock, or God help you, your kids are still into the Wiggles or even worse, Teletubbies, then here is the low down. Carly Shea lives with her big brother Spencer and with the help of her two best friends, Freddie and Sam, they make the web show iCarly for all to adore. Spencer, being the artist that he is, doesn’t like steamed halibut for dinner, it’s too boring…he likes to make Spaghetti Tacos for dinner. For months my kids have been on my butt to make Spencer’s spaghetti tacos. So finally I did. And now we’re bringing them to you. The kids loved them! I couldn’t bring myself to eat them. I’m going to give you the same recipe that they give you on the iCarly website. Note, I did add some veggies to mine because the carbo load was making me twitch. You’ll have to make the judgement call on that one.
“Okay, some might say my brother Spencer is a little DIFFERENT. He makes sculptures outta junk, he has a bright, sparkly sock collection, and he is obsessed with making our toilet water blue. But, sometimes he does things that are weird AND good — like make Spaghetti Tacos. Who else would put together crunchy taco shells with spaghetti and make it soooo delish!?!? So, I thought I’d share his awesome Spaghetti Tacos recipe with you all!
Here it is:
Get taco shells.
Get spaghetti (with meat sauce).
Get a BIG spoon.
Use the BIG spoon to put spaghetti into taco shells.
Eat.
Burp.”

Oh and for the record, we will not be attempting iCarly’s “Chicken Soup in a Toilet.” Thanks but no thanks….living with 4 boys the only thing that goes into that pot, is Lysol! Ya know?

OMG You don’t like Phineas and Ferb?! That is like my favorite show. I love, love, love Perry. *lol* I love SpongeBob, too, and I used to watch iCarly a lot, we still watch it every now and then. Dawson says “iCar-ee” every time it comes on, too cute.
I think that is AWESOME that you made these for your kiddos. What a good mom.
I bet they were stoked! I might have to try them someday. *lol*
Oh, gross!!!!
My boys don’t watch this show, yet. They are more into the Disney shows.
I have never seen the show, no little ones, and I have never seen something like that. When I saw those taco shells…I was shocked! Awesome. I think I might have to try that. Cheers!
wow i’m with you and wouldn’t eat them but good for u for making them for the kids
What a cute and creative idea! Though the Nick shows are waaaaayyyy behind us (I still crave Alex Mack, though…a totally cool show!), I still can relate to spaghetti tacos. It’s the inner kid in me, I swear…
Ha! That’s awesome. And don’t even get me started on the toilet bowl for 4 boys. We’ve actually bought the younger crowd potty targets to help with some of the mess.
I’m not familiar with the show, but a long time ago I have seen Teletubbies(available here) which I don’t want my daughter to watch.
tacos and spaghetti – a bit weird I might say, but I also have my weird combination of food that others might find revolting:-)
have a great day!!!
LOL That is so awesome that you made spaghetti tacos for your kids. Did your kids love them or what? I bet my girls would enjoy eating that too.
My girls LOVE iCarly. I have to agree. As far as kids shows go, iCarly is less annoying than some of the others. I can only take so much of the Suite Life before I want throw something at Zak and Cody. We also love Wizards of Waverly Place. They make some pretty awesome sandwiches on that show. Hint, hint
Wow, how can I not follow a blog that shows spaghetti tacos. I came visiting from Cheryls blog.
awwwww. we love icarly-I’m gonna have my girls check this out after school
You are by far a better mom than I…
Stopping by from SITS…thanks for visiting me on my feature day this week.
Back to tell you that I’ve been sharing your Spaghetti Taco “recipe” with my mommy friends. I think this is brilliant! Please do some more! You could call them “TV Dinners: Recipes Inspired by Your Child’s Favorite Shows”. When you publish your book, you can thank me in the acknowledgements.
Have a great weekend, Mama!
This is great! My kids have been bugging me for months to make spaghetti tacos (we watch iCarly as well.) We’ll have to try them for sure now.
Thanks for the post!
lol, you made them! My girls 12 & 6 love that show. While eating dinner one night, that episode was on and they said we should make that. Still haven’t. So did you like them? =)
My daughter LOVES iCarly – and I agree with you on how cool it is compared to other shows, but I LOVE Sponge Bob and Phineas and Ferb.
Big Time Rush makes me sad that I live in Minnesota – why couldn’t they be from Wisconsin!
i love icarly . It’s the best show in the world
sorry I forgot some I really want to go on set with yall and meet yall
My daughter watches icarly, and one day i ran out of things to make for dinner so i made the tacos and they were good, and she was so happy, they love it when you try something they see on tv or somewhere and they relate to that they feel special and they love the attention!
