Very good. Made this for a Sunday gathering, added a can of black beans, upped the ground beef to 2 lbs., the noodles (we use Muellers Jumbo Ridged Elbows for a lot of these recipes-perfect) to 1 lb, and substituted a packet of taco seasoning for the spices, upped the cheese until we thought it looked like enough-didn't measure-and set various hot sauces on the table. Served with cornbread. It has been requested again for  a "tweener"  dinner ("tweeners" is what we call the weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas!)

This was really good, but definitely more chili than mac.

Delicious and easy!! 
I added more noodles and cheese

Had mine for years and it’s wonderful- a real workhorse

Perfect. I substituted ground sausage for the beef just cause I had some to use up. Its quite spicy enough without cayenne pepper fyi. Really love it and will make again and again. Its so easy too. Thank you

Delicious, easy and lots of food for modest price.

I liked it and so easy. I did add salt and pepper but I thought about adding fire roasted corn, so glad that someone had already thought of this.

This chili mac & cheese is the best of both comforting worlds...grab a spoon.

Chili Mac (or Chili Macaroni) is the best homemade chili mixed with macaroni. It&#039;s filling, rib-sticking comfort food to the max!

CHILI MACARONI (CHILI MAC)

macaroni

garlic (minced)

kidney beans (drained)

(14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes (undrained)

tomato paste

tbsp chili powder

salt & pepper (to taste)

cheddar cheese (for topping)

Boil and cook macaroni until tender.

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

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

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

Drain excess grease from beef and put back into pot

After macaroni is cooked, drain.

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

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

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

Then serve and sprinkle each serving with shredded cheese.

Instant Pot Chili Mac

Instant Pot Chili Mac is a super easy, cheesy, one-pot comfort food meal that the whole family will love! Perfect for a weeknight dinner.

Instant Pot Chili Mac Recipe

Tablespoon minced garlic

hamburger meat

pepper

velveeta cheese

Tablespoons parsley (minced)

Pour the olive oil into the instant pot, and set on saute.  Add the onions and garlic and cook for 4 minutes.

Add the hamburger and cook till it is no longer pink.

Add in about 1/2 cup beef broth, and using a wooden spoon, scrape the bottom of the pot to remove any little bits of food from sticking to the bottom of the pan. This is called deglazing the pan.

Stir in the kidney beans, the remainder of the broth, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt pepper, and elbow macaroni.

Place the lid on the pot and make sure it is sealed.  Turn on high pressure and set the timer for 5 minutes.  It will take a bit of time to build up the pressure and this will help the noodles cook till soft.

Do a quick release (refer to the owner's manual).

Add the velveeta and shredded cheese and stir till melted and combined.

Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.  Sprinkle with minced parsley.

Chili Mac and Cheese

Slow Cooker Chili Mac is an easy comforting dish made right in your crockpot!! Uses simple ingredients right from your pantry!

Slow Cooker Chili Mac

onion,

chili beans chili beans in chili sauce

(28 oz) can crushed tomatoes

(15 oz) can diced tomatoes

elbow macaroni, uncooked

Desired toppings: cheddar,sour cream, green onions, corn chips....

Brown ground beef and drain grease. Add to a 6 qt slow cooker or larger and stir in remaining ingredients except for the pasta.

Cover and cook for 4 hours on HIGH or 8 hours on LOW.  In the last 15 minutes of cooking stir in the uncooked pasta and cover.  Stir and test to see if pasta is to your liking.  However, even with the slow cooker off the pasta will continue to cook just from the heat of the chili and crock itself so unless your pasta is really chewy or crunchy I strongly suggest only cooking it for the last 15 minutes of cook time.

Serve immediately with desired toppings.

Recipe video above. A homemade Chili with the addition of macaroni and cheese = Chili Mac ‘n Cheese! This is terrifically moorish and a fabulous one pot meal. Super quick too! The key with this recipe is to turn the stove off as soon as the pasta is just cooked - it will keep cooking in the residual heat.&nbsp;
