Cook's Country Macaroni Cheesburger Skillet Dinner

This is another easy dinner to make and wonderful for those cold winter nights.  I copied this recipe many years ago with the intention of making it and never got around to it until now. 

Cook's Country Macaroni Cheeseburger Skillet Dinner

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef
1 cup finely chopped onion
3 cups elbow macaroni (I only used 2 1/2 cups) - uncooked
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 15 oz. can of tomato sauce
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 T dry mustard
salt and pepper to taste
6 slices of American cheese, chopped
1/2 cup chopped dill pickles (I omitted since I didn't have any)

Directions:

Cook the beef and onions in a large skillet until the beef is brown (drain any fat if necessary).

Add the dry macaroni, broth, tomato sauce, Worcestershire, dry mustard, salt, and pepper.  Bring to a boil. 

Cover, reduce heat and simmer until macaroni is tender (about 8 to 10 minutes) - stir it occasionally.

Stir in the cheese, the remaining onions and chopped dill pickles.

Enjoy!

This is definitely something I will be making again.  Not only is it easy to make but it is really good.  My husband went back for seconds.  With most of these pasta recipes, I never use as much as pasta at the recipe calls for because it is usually too much pasta - 2 1/2 cups of dry macaroni seemed to be just right (maybe a little bit less would work also).
