Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups beef broth
1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, with juices
2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: chopped pickles or fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Brown the Beef: In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is soft. Drain excess fat.
Add Broth & Pasta: Stir in beef broth and diced tomatoes. Add the uncooked macaroni. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10–12 minutes, or until pasta is tender.
Make It Creamy: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and milk until the cheese melts and the soup becomes rich and creamy.
Season & Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with chopped pickles or parsley if desired.
Notes
Use freshly grated cheese for best melt and texture.
Want it spicy? Add jalapeños, hot sauce, or red pepper flakes.
For a thicker soup, let it simmer longer after adding the cheese.
Try swapping ground beef with ground turkey for a lighter version.
Leftovers thicken—add broth or milk when reheating.
