Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or any preferred ground meat
- 1 cup onion diced
- 1 teaspoon paprika smoked varieties great too!
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste for extra umami = flavor, optional, my husband and I added hot chili sauce as well.
- 1 1/2 cup milk (Use unsweetened); coconut or almond are my favorites.
- 1 1/2 cup beef broth (I use my own homemade beef bone broth for added nutrition benefits
- 2 1/3 cups gluten free noodles I use Trader Joes Brown Rice Spirals, or Tinkiyada.
- 1 cup cheddar cheese I used Daiya Cheddar Shreds
- 1-2 teaspoons gluten-free Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Preheat a large skillet with a tight fitting lid over medium heat (my cast iron pan is my absolute favorite and what I use 99% of the time for all my stove top cooking!).
- Add in your ground beef and diced onion, brown.
- Add in all the spices.
- Stir in the liquids and noodles.
- Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and turn the heat to low.
- Simmer about 10-15 minutes until the noodles are tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
- Remove from the heat, vent the lid, and let rest to absorb the remaining liquid for about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the cheese and Worcestershire, taste, add more salt if necessary, enjoy!
