Steps:

In a 4-quart chicken fryer, heat approximately 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the onions until they begin to soften.
Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds.
Add the ground beef and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning. Using your spatula, break up the ground beef and stir until cooked. Drain the excess liquid from the pan.
Add water, beef stock, pasta, tomatoes, and 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning back to the pan. Stir to combine.
Cook over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring twice to keep the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Increase heat to medium after 15 minutes, and stir pasta until most of the liquid is gone.
Turn off heat and add the shredded cheese. Stir until cheese is completely melted.
Top with green onions.
Enjoy!

SKILLET TACO MAC N CHEESE

Not knowing what to make for dinner tonight, I searched my cupboards to see what I could throw together. I was just going to add some meat and hide some veggies in some mac n cheese but was inspired by the giant container of taco seasoning on my counter that I had just purchased from Costco. The results were good enough that my husband and I were fighting over the leftovers for lunch tomorrow and the kids have requested I make it again. This recipe is easy with boxed macaroni and cheese but of course can be made healthier if you prepare your own. I topped it with a little sour cream and served with a crisp green salad for a complete meal. Yummy!
