      Title: Chilli Mac
 Categories: Beef, Chilies, Herbs, Vegetables, Pasta
      Yield: 5 servings
 
      1 tb Oil
      1 lb Ground beef
      1    Yellow onion; fine chopped
      1 tb Chilli spice mix
      1 tb Ground cumin
      1 tb Garlic powder
           Salt & pepper
     28 oz Can crushed fire-roasted
           - tomatoes
     14 oz Can chicken broth
     15 oz Can pinto beans; undrained
      8 oz Elbow macaroni or another
           - small pasta
      1 tb Worcestershire sauce
      4 oz Grated sharp Cheddar; more
           - for serving
           Hot sauce, thin sliced
           - scallions & chopped
           - cilantro; to serve
 
  In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over
  medium-high. Add the beef and press into an even layer
  to fill the pot. Sprinkle with the onion. Cook,
  undisturbed, until the beef is deeply browned
  underneath, 6 to 8 minutes (the meat won’t be fully
  cooked). If you don’t see fat sizzling around the edges
  of the pot, add a teaspoon or two of more oil.
  
  Add the chilli spice, cumin and garlic powder and season
  generously with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up the
  beef with a spoon into small pieces, until the onion is
  softened and the spices are fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes.
  
  Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, beans and their liquid,
  pasta and Worcestershire sauce and scrape up any browned
  bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Simmer, stirring
  often, until the pasta is al dente, 10 to 12 minutes. If
  the pot starts to look dry at any point, add water, ¼
  cup at a time.
  
  Turn off the heat and stir in the Cheddar, if using,
  until melted. Season to taste with salt, pepper and hot
  sauce (if using). Serve topped with scallions, cilantro,
  hot sauce and more Cheddar as desired.
