- Use ground beef, turkey, chicken, or pork. Any ground meat works well.
- Cook the ground meat until brown and crumbly. Break it apart with a wooden spoon.
- Add the pasta uncooked to the skillet. It is not supposed to be pre-cooked.
- Continue stirring to prevent burning.
- Check ingredient labels for added sugars. Tomato sauce and chicken broth often have additives in them.
- Use room temperature cream cheese. This easily mixes into the skillet.
- For an extra creamy version, add even more cream cheese.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- To reheat, add leftovers to a large skillet with some chicken broth. Stir and cook until warm.
