Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
2 pounds lean ground beef
½ cup chopped onion
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (14 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix

½ teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup crushed tortilla chips
½ cup sour cream

Steps:

Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.

Mix in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, corn, kidney beans, taco seasoning, and chili seasoning; bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.
  • Whisk the Cheddar cheese soup and milk in a saucepan until smooth, and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Whisk in 1 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup of sour cream, and garlic powder; season to taste with salt and black pepper.
  • Arrange the cooked macaroni into the bottom of a 10x15-inch baking dish, and mix with the soup mixture. Pour the ground beef chili over the macaroni, and sprinkle with 1 more cup shredded Cheddar cheese and crushed tortilla chips.
