Categories     Casseroles

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lb 85 percent lean ground beef
1 large yellow onion, chopped fine
1 large red bell pepper, chopped fine
6 clove garlic, minced
2 c elbow macaroni
29 oz can tomato sauce
2 c low sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
a few dashes tobasco sauce
salt and pepper
1 c shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Cook beef in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Drain beef, leaving 2 tablespoons fat in skillet and reserve. Add onion, red pepper and garlic to fat in skillet and cook, covered, until softened, about 3 minutes.
  • 2. Add macaroni, tomato sauce, broth, oregano, Tabasco sauce and reserved beef to skillet and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with cheese. Serve.
  • 3. I like to add a lot of chili powder (3 to 4 tablespoons - or to your own taste), 1 14oz can ranch beans and 2 cups corn before you sprinkle with cheese. After adding these items, bring to a simmer to ensure the corn and beans have heated up. This gives the dish a great Tex-Mex flavor!

Yield 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb. ground beef
1 med. onion, chopped
3 c. tomato juice
1 T. worcestershire sauce
1 T. vinegar

Here are some tips for making a delicious Beef Macaroni Skillet:

  • Choose the right pasta. Elbow macaroni is the traditional pasta for this dish, but you can use any small pasta shape that you like. Penne, shells, and rotini are all good options.
  • Brown the beef well. This will help to develop the flavor of the beef and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Use a flavorful cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Monterey Jack cheese will give the dish a lot of flavor. You can also use a blend of cheeses, such as a Mexican cheese blend or an Italian cheese blend.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. The pasta should be cooked al dente, which means that it is still slightly firm to the bite.
  • Serve the skillet immediately. This dish is best served hot, so make sure to serve it as soon as it is finished cooking.
