BACON CHEESEBURGER PASTA
I try to make foods that are not only kid friendly, but are also easy to reheat since my husband works long hours and often eats later than our children. If you like, use reduced-fat cheese and ground turkey for a lighter version. -Melissa Stevens, Elk River, Minnesota

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the white and light-green parts of the scallions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the ground beef, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, breaking up the beef into small pieces, until no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in the ketchup, mustard and tomato paste. Add the milk, macaroni, 2 cups water, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the pasta has absorbed most of the liquid and is softened, 13 to 15 minutes.
- Uncover (any remaining liquid will thicken as the dish sits), add the cheese and stir until melted. Garnish with the parsley and remaining scallion greens.

Tips:
- Cook the bacon first: This will render out the fat and flavor, which will add a delicious richness to the pasta.
- Use a high-quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or a smoky Gouda would both be good choices.
- Don't overcook the pasta: The pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Add the cheese sauce to the pasta immediately: This will help the cheese melt and evenly coat the pasta.
- Top with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for bacon cheeseburger pasta include diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and crumbled bacon.
Conclusion:
One-pot bacon cheeseburger pasta is a quick and easy meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. It's a great way to use up leftover bacon and cheese, and it's also a fun and creative way to serve pasta. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try.
