Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 tbsp Everything Taco Seasoning
  • 15 oz black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 15 oz tomato sauce
  • 2.5 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 8 oz macaroni

Toppings

  • 2 cups tortilla chips, crushed
  • 8 oz cheddar cheese, coarsely grated
  • 3 tsp Everything Taco Seasoning, divided
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 2 tbsp chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Heat the oil in the 5-Qt.(4.7-L) Non-Stick Sauté Pan over medium-high heat for3 minutes. Add the onion and pepper and cook until softened, about 3–4 minutes.
  • Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it into chunks. Add the seasoning and continue cooking until the beef is no longer pink, about 5–7 minutes.
  • Stir in the black beans, tomato sauce,beef broth, and milk. Bring to a simmer and stir in the pasta. Simmer,uncovered, over medium heat until the pasta is tender, about 10 minutes,stirring occasionally. (If the pasta isn’t tender, add more beef broth or water and continue cooking).
  • Meanwhile, combine the crushed tortilla chips, 1 cup (250 mL) of the cheese, and 2 tsp (10 mL) of the seasoning; set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix the sour cream,milk, and remaining 1 tsp (5 mL) of the seasoning; set aside.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, mix in the remaining cheese. Top with the tortilla chip mixture and bake, uncovered, for6–8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
  • Right before serving, drizzle with the sour cream mixture and top with cilantro, if you’d like.
