Cooking Instructions

Heat a 10-inch deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add Beef (1 lb) , Onion (1) , Garlic (2 cloves) , and Steak Seasoning (2 tsp) . Break up the beef and cook until browned, about 7 minutes. Drain excess grease, if necessary.

Add the Worcestershire Sauce (1 tsp) , Ketchup (2 Tbsp) , Pickle Relish (1 Tbsp) , Yellow Mustard (2 tsp) , and stir to combine. Pour in the Beef Broth (1 can) and bring to a boil.

Stir in the Rotini Pasta (8 oz) . Lower heat, cover, and gently simmer for 10-12, stirring 2-3 times. Cook until the pasta is al dente and the broth has been absorbed. If the broth has been absorbed, but the pasta is still not tender, add 2-4 Tbsp of water, stir, and cook a few minutes longer.

Turn off the heat and stir in the Milk (1/2 cup) . Slowly stir in the Cheese (2 cups) , handfuls at a time, until the sauce is smooth and the cheese has melted.

Serve immediately with Pickles (to taste) and Tomatoes (to taste) .
