A delightful twist on a classic comfort food, this casserole combines creamy macaroni and cheese with zesty beef and a hint of spice.
Cook the macaroni in a large pot of boiling water until al dente, then drain.
Don't overcook the macaroni; it will continue to cook in the oven.
In a skillet, cook the ground beef with diced onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is softened.
Break up the beef into small pieces for even cooking.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet and stir in the diced tomatoes and green chilies.
Use a slotted spoon to remove any excess liquid if the mixture is too watery.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked macaroni, beef mixture, milk, and 1.5 cups of cheddar cheese.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the cheese is evenly distributed.
Transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
Spread the cheese evenly for a golden crust.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving to set.
Serve warm and enjoy your Zesty Beef Macaroni Bake with your favorite side dish.
Garnish with chopped parsley or a dollop of sour cream for added flavor.
