this casserole is easily adaptable — use Mexican Blend cheese instead of cheddar, or chopped jalapenos for lots of heat. We prefer it made with the mild chilies. Really good for a church potluck — I always leave with an empty dish.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb lean ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
3/4 cup water
1 package taco seasoning
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (8 ounce) package shell macaroni, cooked and drained
4 ounces chopped green chilies (mild)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

Directions

1
Brown ground beef and onion over medium heat; drain.
2
Add the water, taco seasoning and tomato sauce.
3
Mix well.
4
Bring to a boil.
5
Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes.
6
Stir in macaroni, chilies and 1 1/2 cups of the cheese.
7
Pour into a greased 1 1/2 quart baking dish.
8
Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
9
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Very nice! I only used 2 ounces green chilies but everything else was done spot on.

This was good. I doubled it and put one in the freezer. I liked it served with parmesan on top!

This is so good! I needed a recipe that was fast that I could use my already prepared taco meat (basicaly, just the pound of ground beef with the taco seasonings). I followed everything to a T except for the type of noodles I used- I used mini lasagna. I love it! Thank you so much for posting!
