Ingredients

12 oz rotini or any pasta of choice
1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tbsp mustard
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tbsp olive oil (optional, for browning beef)

Directions

Cook the Pasta:

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the rotini and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Cook the Beef:

In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil if needed. Brown the ground beef with diced onion and minced garlic until the beef is fully cooked and the onions are soft. Drain any excess fat.
Prepare the Sauce:

To the beef mixture, add tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir to combine. Simmer on low heat for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine with Pasta:

Mix the cooked pasta into the beef sauce and stir until the pasta is fully coated.
Add the Cheese:

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and cover the skillet. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts, or place under the broiler for a golden cheesy top.
Serve:

Serve hot and enjoy this deliciously cheesy, hearty meal!
