  • Total 50 min
  • Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 3 cups uncooked elbow macaroni (about 10 ounces)
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic pepper
  • 2 cans (10 3/4 ounces each) condensed Cheddar cheese soup
  • 1 package (8 ounces) Cheddar cheese cubes
  • 10 strips cooked bacon, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Progresso™ plain bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°. Cook and drain macaroni as directed on package.
  • 2
    While macaroni is cooking, cook beef in 4-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Stir in macaroni, milk, garlic pepper, soup, cheese cubes and half of the bacon. Spoon into 3-quart casserole.
  • 3
    Bake uncovered 20 minutes. Mix remaining bacon, the bread crumbs and butter; sprinkle over casserole. Bake uncovered 5 minutes.

  • Slightly undercook your pasta before adding it to this—or any—casserole mixture. The bake-time will continue the cooking process.
  • Precooked ground beef shaves minutes off this recipe. Simply heat, then stir in the remaining ingredients as directed.
