Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Brown meat in large skillet, drain.
  2. Stir in 2 and 3/4 cups water, salsa and chili powder. Bring to boil; stir in macaroni.
  3. Cover; simmer 10 minutes or until water is almost absorbed. Note: I had a hard time getting the macaroni done so I precooked it the next time and it turned out fine. I also added just a little water to make this a little thinner, it is very thick and rich.
  4. Add Velveeta; stir until melted.
  5. Top with crushed tortilla chips, chopped green onions and tomatoes, if desired.
