Recipe of the Week

My sister-in-law, Amanda, told me she wants recipes that are quick and easy. She said it takes her two hours to make anything. Considering she has two babies under the age of two, I'm surprised she can finish a sentence let alone dinner. So I'm posting a weekly recipe to help her out...



Chili Mac



1lb. ground beef

1 can chili with no beans (Nally's Thick works good)

1 can corn, drained

1/4 cup milk

1 medium pkg. Valveeta, cut into cubes

1/2 jar salsa (optional) - if you use the salsa reduce milk to 2 tbsp.

1 pkg of pasta noodles, cooked and drained



Brown ground beef with your choice of spices - I use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder and cumin. Add corn and heat through. Add milk, Valveeta and salsa if using. Cook and stir until the cheese melts. Pour over cooked pasta and toss thoroughly to coat. Serve with salad.
