Chili Mac and cheese



 Another nice fall dish. Recipe found here https://www.recipetineats.com/one-pot-chili-mac-and-cheese/

I substituted Gardein ground be’f  made from soy for the ground beef and I used less. For the cheese part I used some cheese packet from a Mac and cheese pouch. Cooked noodles separately since I have to have gf and hubby does not. So instead of beef broth I used dried beef bullion. I use milder spices and used a bell pepper in mine. I used some smoked paprika instead of regular and I used different amounts than those below. Below are the normal ingredients
