recipe

  • Step 1
    Peel & dice the onion.
  • Step 2
    Heat a drizzle of oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion & sauté 1-2 min, until translucent.
  • Step 3
    Add the beef. Stir & cook, breaking up the meat with a spatula for about 3-4 min, until mostly cooked. Add your favorite spices! (We love garlic powder, onion powder & smoked paprika here!) Stir it all together. Season with freshly ground pepper & stir again.
  • Step 4
    Pour in the diced tomatoes, beef broth & macaroni. Stir & heat everything to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover & cook for 8-10 min. Stir occasionally until most of the liquid is absorbed & pasta is al dente.
  • Step 5
    Remove the lid & slowly stir in shredded cheddar cheese. Turn off the heat & allow everything to sit for a few min before stirring again & serving. This will help the sauce thicken & the meat will soak up more flavor! Serve with more cheese on top & enjoy!
