A quick skillet meal. Only 1 skillet to wash...woohoo! A kid-pleaser at my house.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb extra lean ground sirloin
1 small onion, chopped
16 ounces can tomato sauce
16 ounces can water, use the empty tomato sauce can
16 ounces can diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
3 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2-1 teaspoon cumin
1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried cilantro
1/2 cup milk
2-2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, can use cheddar-jack

Directions

1
In a large skillet, brown and crumble the ground sirloin with the chopped onion until no longer pink; drain excess fat, if desired (there shouldn't be that much if you've used the extra lean ground sirloin).
2
Return cooked beef/onions to skillet. Add the tomato sauce, water, diced tomatoes, dry macaroni and seasonings. Stir well and bring to a boil.
3
Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover tightly and simmer for 12-15 minutes (stirring once or twice) or until macaroni is tender.
4
Add milk and cheese and stir well, until cheese is smooth and melted.
5
Serve.

This dish has a lot of potential. I didn't have ground sirloin, so I just used what I had in the fridge which was ground turkey. Overall I was impressed with how well the noodles cooked all together. It seems to be missing some "zing" to it. I think it is a very hearty meal, but I might try some more seasonings next time and maybe add black beans or corn to it. Overall, it was a tasty meal. Thanks for posting

It didn't have the flavor I was expecting. I would cook the noodles seperately and add more seasonings.

This was delicious! We have food sensitivities, so I substituted rice cheese, rice milk, ground turkey and brown rice elbo macaroni. With all of the substitutions I did not expect it to turn out as good as it did--it was great! I used a really good tomato sauce when I made this. Thanks for sharing!

I probably shouldn't have made this on the hottest day of the year so far, (it was 92 in our house) but I did.We all liked the taste, and I liked how easy it was to but together.Instead of mac, I used mini lasagna noodles, and for half of the water I used chicken broth. Oh - and ground chicken instead of beef. I will be making this again - on a cooler day! Thanks.
