Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 large yellow onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium carrot, diced
• 2 cups cooked elbow macaroni
• 1 14.5-ounce can canned diced tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon garam masala
• 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons sliced scallions (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large pot or deep skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and let it warm up for 1-2 minutes.

Step 2

Add the ground beef to the pot. Cook, stirring and breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set the cooked beef aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the diced onion, garlic, red bell pepper, and carrot. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Step 4

Add the soy sauce, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garam masala, salt, and black pepper to the vegetables. Stir well to combine and cook for 1 minute to toast the spices.

Step 5

Return the cooked beef to the pot and add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices) and chicken or vegetable broth. Stir everything together and bring to a simmer.

Step 6

Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Stir in the cooked macaroni and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well until the cheese is fully melted and the pasta is coated in the sauce.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with sliced scallions if desired. Enjoy your Fusion Slumgullion!
