Step 1

Preheat a 10-12" skillet with a tight fitting lid over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the oil.

Step 3

Add the onions and saute until soft, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 4

Crumble the ground meat and add in the garlic, stirring to break the meat up.

Step 5

When browned, add in tomato paste, canned tomatoes, beef broth, oregano, and chili powder.  Stir to combine.

Step 6

Mix in the noodles.  Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and cover.  Cook until the noodles are al dente, about 7-10 minutes.  The noodles will continue to soak up liquid as it sits, so don’t worry if it seems thin at first.

Step 7

Stir in cheddar shreds until melted.  Serve with preferred garnishes.
