Materials

  • ½ pound Lean Ground Beef I used 90/10 grass fed beef
  • 1 ½ cups Elbow Macaroni
  • 1 can Tomato Sauce
  • ½ tsp Garlic Powder
  • ¾ tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Black Pepper
  • ¾ tsp NM Chile Powder
  • 2 cups water

Instructions

  • Heat a medium-sized saucepan on medium to high heat, add ground beef and cook until lightly browned.
  • Add macaroni and cook until macaroni is slightly browned.
  • This will ensure that it doesn’t get mushy when cooked.
  • Now add tomato sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and chile powder.
  • Mix and cook for about a minute until all the flavors come together.
  • Add water, mix and bring up to a boil.
  • Once boiling, cover and turn the heat down so it remains at a low boil.
  • Begin to check the macaroni after 5 minutes, but don’t cook any longer than ten minutes.
  • The macaroni should be cooked through and slightly al dente.
