Main Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 0.5 cup beef broth
- 1 can diced tomatoes 14.5 ounce, undrained
- 1 cup ketchup
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 8 ounce elbow macaroni uncooked

- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a large skillet or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
- Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes (undrained), ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then stir in the uncooked elbow macaroni, salt, and pepper.
- Cover the skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and milk until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
- Serve hot, garnished with chopped pickles and sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
This cheeseburger pasta is best enjoyed fresh. You can adjust the amount of ketchup and other seasonings to your preference.
