Taco Macaroni and Cheese Ingredients
As you can see, we used Kraft macaroni and cheese in the “three cheese” box, which is why our shells look the way they do. Velveeta macaroni and cheese has a similar shape. Use whatever brand and shell type you like! You can find the Rotel seasoned tomatoes in the same aisle where all canned tomatoes are. I’ve heard that Walmart always has Rotel:) It’s good stuff! How to Make Taco MacBegin by preparing your 2 boxes of macaroni and cheese in one pot. In a separate pan, being browsing the ground beef. Drain the excess fat and then simmer the beef in taco seasoning. While the taco meat is simmering, add the diced tomatoes. The goal here is to simply warm the tomatoes since they are already cooked. They will heat up easily while the taco seasoning is simmering in the ground beef. So easy! Once the macaroni and cheese is done, add it to the taco meat and gently stir it all together. If you have kids who are interested in learning how to cook, this is an excellent recipe for them to help you with! Kids are particularly great at stirring together Taco Macaroni and Cheese over low heat. They’ll feel so accomplished and proud at how everyone loves what they cooked!
