Ingredients
Method
Cooking the Pasta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add in the elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Cooking the Protein
- In the same pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground turkey or beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Adding Seasoning
- Sprinkle in the taco seasoning, and stir to coat the meat evenly. Let it cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
Combining Ingredients
- Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juice), chicken broth, and cream, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Cheesy Goodness
- Stir in the cooked macaroni and shredded cheese, mixing until everything is well combined and the cheese is melted and gooey. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serving
- Remove from heat and serve hot, garnished with your favorite toppings. Enjoy every creamy, cheesy bite!
Notes
Adjust spice levels by using less taco seasoning for a milder flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-5 days.
