Instructions
 

  • To large skillet add the ground beef, and brown over medium high heat. Drain off any excess fat that the meat may render. In the same skillet to the drained beef add in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and pepper. Stir well to combine.
  • To the seasoned beef mixture add in the beef broth and macaroni. Heat over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low, covering the skillet with a lid. Simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the macaroni is cooked to al dente.
  • Add in the shredded cheese and half and half and stir to combine. Heat over medium heat for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the mixture becomes creamy.
  • Remove from heat and serve right away while hot. Enjoy!
