Report
Homemade beefaroni is similar to the classic canned version you know and love, but is WAY better! This one-pot recipe is easy to make in only 30 minutes with tender noodles, zesty tomato sauce, and of course, plenty of meaty, savory ground beef.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup diced onion
- 4-6 cloves garlic minced
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef 80/20
- 30 ounces canned tomato sauce + 30 oz water
- 16 ounces dried macaroni
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- salt and pepper
- Garnish: shredded cheddar cheese chopped green onions
Instructions
- Set a large 6 to 8 quart sauté pot over medium heat. Add the butter to the pot. Once melted, add the onions and garlic. Stir and sauté for 3-4 minutes to soften. Add the ground beef to the pot and break it into small piece with a wooden spoon. Continue to stir and break up the ground beef for 5-10 minutes until fully cooked through. Make sure all the meat pieces are smaller than the macaroni.
- Add the canned tomato sauce, plus 30 ounces of water to the pot. Stir in the dried macaroni noodles, sugar, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Stir well. Partially cover the pot to help it come to a boil quickly.
- Simmer the pasta for 6-7 minutes until fully cooked. Be sure to stir well every 1-2 minutes so the meat and pasta do not stick to the bottom of the pot. *When cooking pasta in thick sauce like this, it's more likely to stick to the bottom. Don't forget to stir regularly!
- Once the pasta is fully cooked through, and the sauce has tightened up, turn off the heat. Taste and salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm with a sprinkling of shredded cheese and chopped scallions.
Notes
- Let the meat and noodles cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
