Creamy Beef & Macaroni

Some nights you need dinner on the table before anyone has a chance to ask “what’s for dinner?" again. This one-skillet creamy beef and macaroni pulls that off in just 15 minutes flat.

Browned ground beef gets tossed with spaghetti sauce and a sneaky half-cup of mayo-style dressing that melts into a lush, tangy sauce coating every elbow noodle. A blanket of cheddar on top seals the deal.

It’s the kind of weeknight shortcut that tastes like you tried way harder than you did.

Kitchen Tips

• Use hot cooked macaroni so the dish stays warm through assembly and the cheese melts faster on top.
• Swap in Italian sausage for the ground beef when you want a little more kick.
• Stir in a handful of frozen peas right at the end for color and a pop of sweetness.
