Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Ground Beef
  • 1 small Onion, chopped
  • 2 tbs Olive Oil
  • 10 oz Rotel
  • 2 oz Taco Seasoning (2 packets)
  • ¾ cup Beef Broth
  • 2 cups Whole Milk
  • 4 oz Velveeta, cubed
  • 1 box Medium Pasta Shells
  • ½ cup Monetary Jack Cheese, shredded
  • ½ Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • Parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In a large lipped skillet, sauté the onion in oil for about 2 minutes then add the ground beef. Using a wooden spoon, break the beef down into small pieces as iit browns.
  • Make the ground beef according to the directions on the back of the taco seasoning packet BUT use two packets instead of the recommended one for more flavor.
  • Add the can of Rotel, beef broth, and milk. Stir everything together and add the uncooked pasta.
  • Move the pasta around so it’s even and mostly submerged. Place a lid on top of the skillet and let the pasta simmer for about 15 minutes or until the pasta is cooked, stirring half way through.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in the velveeta until it’s completely melted into the pasta.
  • Stir in the shredded cheeses until they are evenly combined into the pasta also.
  • Finally, let the pasta cool slightly, garnish with parsley (optional) and serve warm. Enjoy!
