Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

olive oil
1 lb ground beef
1 small white onion, diced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
2 tablespoons taco seasoning, divided
½ lb small macaroni, dry
1 cup water
2 cups beef stock
2 cups shredded white cheddar, yellow cheddar works as well
1 cup tomato, diced
green onion, diced, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a 4-quart chicken fryer, heat approximately 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the onions until they begin to soften.
  • Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds.
  • Add the ground beef and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning. Using your spatula, break up the ground beef and stir until cooked. Drain the excess liquid from the pan.
  • Add water, beef stock, pasta, tomatoes, and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning back to the pan. Stir to combine.
  • Cook over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring twice to keep the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • Increase heat to medium after 15 minutes, and stir pasta until most of the liquid is gone.
  • Turn off heat and add the shredded cheese. Stir until cheese is completely melted.
  • Top with green onions.
  • Enjoy!
