This military-style chili mac from Tracy Lingle brings MRE beef-mac-and-tomato nostalgia to a home-cooked dinner. Texas Chili seasoning and Platoon Sergeant SPG season the ground beef and tomato sauce before the macaroni goes in.

Cook the macaroni before combining

Use a pot for the elbow macaroni and a large skillet for the beef mixture. Cook the pasta to al dente, drain, and set aside. Once the beef, onion, tomatoes, and seasonings have simmered, stir in the noodles for the final five-minute simmer.

Adjust the seasoning before serving

The recipe starts with 4 teaspoons of Texas Chili, with more to taste. Add Platoon Sergeant SPG during the sauce stage as directed below. The recipe card allows 15 minutes of preparation and 45 minutes of cooking; plan for about an hour.

Serve with optional Fire Chief Hot Sauce, or try Army-Style Hamburger Yakisoba next.
