When time is short, Sandra Castillo relies on this family-pleasing main dish. It's so easy to fix, and everyone loves the zesty flavor that the salsa and chili beans provide, comments the Sun Prairie, Wisconsin cook. Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) elbow macaroni |
1 pound ground turkey or beef |
1 jar (16 ounces) salsa |
10 ounces process cheese (velveeta), cubed |
1 can (16 ounces) chili beans, undrained |
Directions:
1. Cook macaroni according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Drain macaroni; set aside.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine salsa and cheese. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Stir into the skillet; add the macaroni and beans. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6-8 servings.
