Hamburger Mac & Cheese

Directions

1. 1
   In a pot make elbow macaroni per box instructions. Once the macaroni is made set aside. Cook the pasta to the al dente point.
2. 2
   Use the same pot pour in 1 tbs of olive oil, the garlic, ground beef, diced tomato, onions, water, tomato sauce, chili pepper, sea salt & pepper, over high heat. It'll take about 15 minutes for the ground beef to cook thoroughly. Pour out any excess liquid into a larger pot.
3. 3
   In that larger pot pour in the rest of the olive oil, oregano, 1/2 cup of tomato sauce, sea salt & pepper over medium heat.
4. 4
   Preheat your oven to 350 degrees at this point
5. 5
   Chop up the block of cheddar cheese into blocks (set aside about 1/3 or less for the end).
6. 6
   Once the tomato sauce is heated throw in the cheddar cheese blocks into the pot, consistently stirring to avoid sticking.
7. 7
   When the sauce is smooth & chunk less, mix in beef & the macaroni. Turn the stove off & mix.
8. 8
   Transfer the mac & cheese to an oven safe tray, top with the remainder of the cheddar cheese & add grated Parmesan.
9. 9
   Leave this in the oven until the top layer of cheese has melted & has a nice golden brown coat.
