This is comfort food at its best. This dish was inspired by one of my favorite quick weeknight meals - Spicy Chicken Mac. I love everything about that dish and decided I needed to make a beef version. We love chili at our house, so I went with an easy Chili Mac.
This was delicious. It only takes a few minutes to make and it is all in one skillet. Yay for easy clean up! This very filling and hit the spot on a cold night. We served this with some Cheesy Biscuits to complete the meal. This is also good reheated.
