Notes
- Homemade condensed cream of mushroom soup can be used instead of canned for a fresher flavor.
- Various pasta shapes like rotini, bowtie, or penne can substitute macaroni; whole wheat or gluten-free pasta also work.
- Add vegetables such as corn, peas, diced tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, or spinach to increase nutrition.
- Grate shredded zucchini and carrots into the beef mixture to hide extra vegetables without altering flavor noticeably.
- Monterey Jack or Mozzarella cheese can be used alone or with cheddar for different cheese notes.
