Instructions
- Brown hamburger in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes. Drain grease off.
- Add salsa, tomato sauce and water to hamburger in skillet. Heat to boiling. Add macaroni and corn, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until macaroni is tender. Stir occasionally.
- When macaroni is cooked sprinkle with cheese, replace cover and let stand until cheese is melted.
Notes
- WHAT KIND OF BEEF IS BEST FOR PASTA?
- I prefer ground beef for this recipe because it cooks fast and is easy to eat with the pasta. You could also substitute ground turkey or chicken. It might change the flavor a little.
- CAN I USE A DIFFERENT KIND OF PASTA?
- One pot pastas can be tricky if you use a different pasta shape. Different pasta shapes have different cooking times, so if you use something other than macaroni it might not cook (or will overcook) in the time listed in the recipe.
- If you use another type of pasta just watch the cook time and test it for doneness throughout the time!
