CHILI MACARONI (CHILI MAC)

Step 1

Boil and cook macaroni until tender.

Step 2

While macaroni is cooking, cook ground beef along with onion.

Step 3

Stir and cook until beef is browned and onion is soft.

Step 4

Add in garlic during last couple of minutes of cooking (so it doesn't burn).

Step 5

Drain excess grease from beef and put back into pot

Step 6

After macaroni is cooked, drain.

Step 7

Stir macaroni and remaining ingredients (minus the cheese) into beef mixture.

Step 8

Heat to boiling, stir occasionally, then reduce heat and simmer covered for about 15-20 minutes.

Step 9

Make sure to give it a taste test at this point. I usually find I need to season with a bit of salt.

Step 10

Then serve and sprinkle each serving with shredded cheese.
