Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Coarse salt and ground pepper
3/4 pound rigatoni or other tube-shaped pasta
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 small yellow onion, diced small
1 pound ground beef chuck (85 percent lean)
1 3/4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 cup corn kernels, thawed if frozen
1 small zucchini, diced medium
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes
2 ounces cheddar, grated (3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and return to pot. Meanwhile, in a large skillet heat oil over medium. Add garlic and onion and cook until onion is translucent, 3 minutes.
  • Increase heat to medium-high, add beef, and cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add cumin and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Add corn and zucchini and cook until zucchini is crisp-tender, 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and juice, bring to a simmer, and cook until mixture is heated through, about 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide pasta among four bowls, top with meat sauce, and sprinkle with cheese.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chili mac turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't add enough liquid.

This recipe was a total fail. The chili mac was bland and watery. I won't be making this again.

This chili mac was a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll use a milder chili next time.

This chili mac was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and so flavorful. I used ground turkey instead of beef, and it turned out great.
