Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb ground beef (lean is best)
- 1/2 cup onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 Teaspoon chili powder
- 1 Teaspoon ground mustard
- 1 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon pepper
- 1 lb elbow macaroni
- 5 Cups beef broth
- 2 Cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 Cup heavy cream (or half and half)
- Parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil and ground beef. Cook the ground beef until no longer pink for about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the diced onions, and cook until softened and translucent.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and the tomato paste and stir until well-combined.
- Add the garlic powder, chili powder, ground mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Stir in the beef broth and the uncooked macaroni. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium or medium/low.
- Cover the pot and heat for 5 minutes. Uncover, stir briefly, replace the cover, and heat for 5 more minutes, or until just al dente.
- Once the noodles are cooked, stir in the heavy cream.
- Sprinkle in 1½ cups of the shredded cheddar, stirring as you do so.
- Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese, replace the lid, and heat for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
- Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Top with parsley and serve!
