Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 can 15 ounces diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup uncooked elbow macaroni
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley optional, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until the beef is browned and the onion is soft, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Stir in the salt, black pepper, paprika, diced tomatoes (with juice), uncooked macaroni, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and half of the cheddar cheese. Bring to a simmer.
  4. Once simmering, cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the macaroni is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream until well combined.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
