👨🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Brown the Beef and Onion
In a large pot over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion together. Stir occasionally until the beef is browned and the onions are soft. Drain any excess fat before continuing.
Step 2: Add Broth and Bring to a Boil
Pour in the beef broth and turn up the heat until the mixture begins to boil.
Step 3: Cook the Macaroni
Add the elbow macaroni to the pot and stir well. Cook for about 7–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender but still firm (al dente).
Step 4: Add Milk and Cheese
Reduce the heat to low. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring continuously. Then, add the shredded cheddar cheese and stir until completely melted and smooth.
Step 5: Season and Serve
Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot. For extra flavor, top with more shredded cheese or a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
Creamy, cheesy, and full of flavor, this easy one-pot meal is perfect for busy weeknights or cozy weekends when you want something warm and satisfying without a pile of dishes.
