# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1/2 cup cooked and crumbled beef bacon
02 -
2 cups cooked penne or rotini noodles
03 -
1 pound ground beef
04 -
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
→ Sauce
05 -
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
06 -
1/4 cup ketchup
07 -
Black pepper to taste
08 -
Salt to taste
09 -
1/4 cup flour, all-purpose
10 -
1 cup milk
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Grab some bowls and spoon it up while it’s still steamy. Want more flavor? Scatter on extra cheddar or toss on extra beef bacon bits.
02 -
Dump in the noodles, cheddar, and those bacon crumbles. Stir the whole thing until the cheese’s all gooey and the pasta’s coated.
03 -
Pour in your ketchup and Worcestershire. Sprinkle in a little salt and black pepper. Give it a good stir and let it bubble on low for 2-3 minutes so it gets nice and thick.
04 -
Toss the flour over your beef. Mix it around, then slowly pour in the milk, whisking the whole time. It'll turn into a smooth sauce.
05 -
Heat up your skillet on medium. Crumble in the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with your spatula, until it’s browned. Drain off any leftover grease.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Wanna boost the taste? Go for sharp cheddar and smoky beef bacon. Make sure your noodles are a little firm before mixing in—they'll soften up in the skillet.
