Chili Mac Recipe
  1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat and add the onion and jalapeno peppers. Cook for 5 minutes to soften.

  2. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

  3. Add the ground beef and break apart with a wooden spoon. Cook for 5-6 minutes to brown and cook mostly through, stirring a bit.

  4. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, cayenne, salt and pepper, hot sauce, and tomato paste. Cook 1-2 minutes to bloom the spices, stirring.

  5. Add the beef broth, tomatoes, kidney beans, and macaroni noodles. Stir.

  6. Cover and reduce heat to simmer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the noodles are done to your liking.
