Ingredients
- 1 box manicotti shells cooked al dente and drained
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons corn starch combined with 2 tablespoons water
- 1 can refried beans
- 1 can chili beans
- 1 can tomato paste
- 2 ½ cups cheddar cheese shredded and divided, sharp
- ¼ cup onion diced for topping
- ¼ cup sour cream for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large skillet, over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with the diced onion.
- Add the chili powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the ground beef.
- Pour in the water and make sure the seasoning is well mixed in and dissolved.
- In a small bowl, combine the corn starch and 2 tablespoons water. Add it to the skillet.
- Add the refried beans, chili beans, and tomato paste to the skillet. Keep stirring until the refried beans and tomato paste have become smooth and everything is well combined.
- Slowly add 2 cups of the shredded cheese to the skillet. Keep folding in the cheese until it has all melted.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently so nothing sticks and burns on the bottom.
- Add one cup of the beef mixture to the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Fill the cooked noodles with the mixture by holding one end of the noodle closed and stuffing the open end until filled. Place in the baking dish.
- Top with any leftover mixture and the rest of the cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until bubbly.
- Top with sour cream and onion (optional).
