Why I Love This Recipe
This is a one-pot casserole recipe that taste like a cheeseburger and takes less than 30 minutes to prepare. I love easy and quick meals and cheeseburgers, so why not combine the two to make a recipe the whole family will enjoy?
Ingredients You'll Need
2 lbs ground lean meat; turkey, chicken, beef
1 small onion, diced or 2 TBSP dried minced onions
1 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 can diced tomatoes, 14.5oz
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup tomato sauce
2 cups water
¾ cup ketchup
1½ tsp yellow mustard
1 box elbow macaroni, 16oz
1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, separated
parsley for garnish
Directions
Combine ground meat, onion, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a large pot and cook on medium-high heat. Drain any excess fat with a spoon.
To the pot, add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, tomato sauce, water, ketchup, mustard, and macaroni. Bring mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 15-20 minutes, or until pasta is tender.
Remove from heat and stir in one cup of shredded cheese.
Garnish with the remainder ½ cup cheese and parsley.
Notes: All the liquid will be absorbed during cooking. Simple, huh?
