Instructions
In a large pot add ground beef, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Cook over medium-high heat, breaking up beef, blending seasonings evenly. Cook until browned with no pink remaining and onions are translucent, approximately 7–8 minutes.
Next, add beef broth and water and bring to a simmer then add pasta and allow to simmer uncovered for approximately 17–20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pasta is ready when it is cooked to desired texture and broth has cooked down.
Last, add 1/2 cup milk and cheese. Mix well until cheese is melted and evenly blended. Serve, salt and pepper to taste, enjoy!
