Ingredients

6 servings

  • 1 (14 ounce) package macaroni and cheese
  • 1 pound extra-lean ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 (10 ounce) can canned whole kernel corn
  • 1 (10 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
  • While the macaroni is cooking, brown ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium heat until beef is browned and crumbly, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  • Drain macaroni; do not rinse. Return to the pot and add butter, milk, and both packages of cheese sauce mix. Stir until well combined.
  • Combine macaroni and cheese, ground beef mixture, undrained corn, tomato sauce, and tomato paste in a 2-quart casserole dish; mix well.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, 20 to 25 minutes. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
