Tacoroni and Cheese

A great new spin on an old classic!

Ingredients:

1 8oz box elbow noodles (.79)

1 15oz can of tomato sauce (.69)

1 15oz can of Rotel (1.34--next time I will use a coupon for sure)

1/2 lb of ground chuck (1.78)

1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (.12--found a GREAT sale!)

Step 1:

Cook noodles as instructed on package. Drain and set aside.

Step 2:

Brown beef and drain.
Step 3:

Put stovetop on medium heat. Add Rotel, tomato sauce and macaroni to the beef and mix.

Step 4:

Add cheese and mix.

Step 5:

Don't forget your side dish! Mine? A loaf of homemade bread (.25)

And we're ready to eat! This recipe actually makes enough for about 5 people. I put the leftovers in some tupperware and will be having it for lunch tomorrow!
