Ingrediente

2 boxes (7.25 oz. each) Mac and Cheese dinner

1 pound lean ground beef

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 small onion, chopped

1 package (14-16 oz.) hot dogs, chopped

A few shakes of Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons chili powder

2 teaspoons cumin

8 ounces tomato sauce

8 ounce can of water (use the empty tomato sauce can)

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter

1/2 cup milk

Instrucțiuni

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove the cheese packets from both boxes of mac and cheese and set them aside. When the water comes to a boil, cook the mac and cheese dinners according to package directions. Drain.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and crumble the beef with the salt, pepper, onion and hot dogs until the beef is no longer pink. Drain if necessary. Return the mixture to the skillet. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, tomato sauce and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency. (I like ours the consistency of Sloppy Joe's, but make yours how you like it).

After the pasta has been drained, return it to the pan and add the butter, milk and cheese powder. Stir to combine. Add the chili dog sauce to the mac and cheese and stir well. Serve.
