Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3/4 C water (I used 1/2 C )
  • 1 pkg. (1 1/4 oz.) taco seasoning
  • 1 15 oz. can tomato sauce (I used 1 can rotel and a small can tomato paste)
  • 2 cans (8 oz each) tomato sauce
  • 1 pkg. (8 oz.) shell macaroni, uncooked (I used elbow, uncooked.)
  • 1 4 oz. can chopped mild green chilies (omitted due to Rotel)
  • 2 C shredded cheddar cheese (I would have liked a bit less--maybe 1 1/2 C)

Directions

Brown ground beef and onion in skillet. Drain fat. Add the water, taco seasoning and tomato sauce; mix. Simmer for 20 minutes (I didn't). Transfer to crockpot.

Stir in macaroni and chopped green chilies.

Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours. (Mine cooked in 2 1/2 hours on high, since the meat was already cooked.) In the last 30 minutes of cooking, top with cheddar cheese.
