Making TikTok Taco Mac & Cheese
To make this viral TikTok recipe, start by browning a pound of ground beef. Meanwhile, cook 2 boxes of shells and cheese (according to package directions).
Finally, Mix together the cooked pasta and cheese packet, along with the cooked ground beef, a can of Rotel tomatoes, and a packet of taco seasoning. Yum! I just love how simple and delicious this recipe is to make.
