Chili mac and cheese! Take two comfort food favorites and combine them into one cheesy skillet. Not too spicy, so perfect for a family meal (add hot sauce if you like heat!).
Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked elbow pasta
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 yellow onion, diced
2 tomatoes, diced (or 1 15-oz can whole tomatoes, drained and diced)
1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
3 cups (12 ounces) shredded cheese, either a Mexican cheese blend (see Recipe Note) or cheddar
