Easy Taco Mac And Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Brown meat in large skillet on medium-high heat; drain. Add Macaroni, water, salsa and Cheese Sauce Mix; mix well. Bring to boil. Cook on medium-low heat 15 min., stirring occasionally.
• Spoon into taco shells.
• Top evenly with shredded cheese and tomatoes.

Steps:

• In a 4-quart chicken fryer, heat approximately 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the onions until they begin to soften.
• Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds.
• Add the ground beef and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning. Using your spatula, break up the ground beef and stir until cooked. Drain the excess liquid from the pan.
• Add water, beef stock, pasta, tomatoes, and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning back to the pan. Stir to combine.
• Cook over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring twice to keep the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Increase heat to medium after 15 minutes, and stir pasta until most of the liquid is gone.
• Turn off heat and add the shredded cheese. Stir until cheese is completely melted.
• Top with green onions.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, ground beef and House Seasoning. Cook until the veggies begin to soften and the beef is slightly browned and no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, chili powder, cumin and beef stock.
• Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the sauce reduces, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the pasta and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid starts to slightly absorb. Add the cheese and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, top with the sour cream and sprinkle with the green onions, if using.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.
