Instructions

Creating Creamy Rotel Pasta with Ground Beef is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
2. Add Onions and Garlic: Once the beef is cooked, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent.
3. Stir in Rotel Tomatoes: Drain excess fat from the skillet and stir in the Rotel tomatoes, including the juice. Allow to simmer for about 3-5 minutes.
4. Pour in Heavy Cream: Reduce heat to low, and pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Let it simmer gently for another 5 minutes.
5. Add Cheese and Seasoning: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is creamy.
6. Combine with Pasta: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing gently to coat the pasta in the creamy sauce.
7. Serve Hot: Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley for a fresh touch.

These straightforward steps will help you create this delicious meal without any hassle.
