Recipe - Taco Macaroni
January 14, 2026
INGREDIENTS:
- ¾ pound 93% lean beef
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning (homemade or packaged)
- ½ cup yellow onion, chopped
- ½ cup red bell pepper, chopped
- ½ cup green bell pepper, chopped
- 10 oz can Rotel diced tomatoes with green chiles
- 1 ½ cups beef broth
- ½ cup milk
- 8 ounces macaroni, elbows, baby shells, etc. (or gluten-free pasta)
- 1 cup Mexican blend cheese or Monterey jack cheese
DIRECTIONS: Heat a large, deep skillet on medium high heat and add the beef and taco seasoning. Cook, breaking the meat up into small pieces, until browned, 5-6 minutes. Add the onion and bell peppers; cook until aromatic; 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the canned tomatoes and beef broth and bring to a boil. Add the macaroni and make sure to submerge pasta into the liquid. Lower heat to medium-low and cover. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring halfway until the pasta is almost tender and the liquid is mostly absorbed. Uncover, add the milk, and cook, covered, stirring periodically, medium-low until pasta is al dente and most of the liquid is absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat, uncover and add cheese. Stir to combine.
