Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 lb beyond beef
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 14 oz crushed tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked (or canned) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp cumin
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 10 oz uncooked macaroni elbow pasta
  • 1 1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese (I used daiya vegan cheese)

Instructions

  • Heat the oil on medium heat in a large saucepan. Add the garlic, onion and beyond beef, and cook until the ground beef is browned, around 5-8 minutes, making sure to crumble the ground beef while cooking.
  • Once the beyond beef is cooked, add in the vegetable broth, tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then allow to simmer. Mix in the pasta, and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the pasta is completely cooked. Mix in the cheese.
