Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 2 cups beef broth
- 15 ounces (canned) diced tomatoes
- 8 ounces (canned) tomato sauce
- 2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for topping)
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Break it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat and transfer the beef to your crock pot.
Step 2
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the crock pot along with the cooked beef.
Step 3
Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes (with their juice), and tomato sauce.
Step 4
Stir in the paprika, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together thoroughly.
Step 5
Cover the crock pot with a lid and cook on low heat for 3 to 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 6
About 40 minutes before serving, stir in the uncooked elbow macaroni. Replace the lid and allow the pasta to cook through, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve warm, topped with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
