Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups beef broth (or water if you don’t have broth)
- 2 cups uncooked pasta (like rotini, penne, or macaroni)
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened (optional for extra creaminess)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or chives, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions:
- Cook the Beef: In a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain any excess fat.
- Add Onion and Garlic: Add the diced onion and garlic to the beef and cook until the onion is soft, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add Sauce Ingredients: Stir in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well.
- Add Pasta and Broth: Add the pasta and beef broth to the skillet. Stir to combine, ensuring the pasta is submerged in the liquid.
- Simmer: Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid.
- Add Cheeses: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and cream cheese (if using) until melted and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley or chives if desired, and serve hot.
