Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion finely diced
- 1 large carrot finely diced
- 1 lbs lean ground beef 90% lean
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 10 oz shell noodles or macaroni noodles or bowtie
- 8 oz tomato sauce
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup milk
- 1 ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- parsley optional, for garnish
- red pepper flakes optional, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet to medium heat and add oil. Once warmed, add in diced onions and diced carrots (I use my vegetable chopper for even chopping & uniform cooking time).
- Stir together and sauté for a few minutes. When onions begin to soften, add the pound of ground beef and seasonings. Cook the meat until 90% done.
- Pour in the tomato sauce, beef broth, worcestershire, milk and uncooked pasta with the browned meat mixture. Stir all together and cook for 12-18 minutes until most of the broth has evaporated and noodles are cooked **you still want some broth at the bottom to help the cheese melt and make a creamy, cheesy sauce.
- Continue to stir to avoid the shells sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Fold in the cheese (any Schitts Creek references out there?!?) and stir until combined.
- Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley and pinch of red pepper flakes if desired. Enjoy!
