Sloppy Cheeseburger Pasta

Instructions:

1. Cook the beef
   • In a large skillet or deep pan, brown the ground beef over medium heat.
   • Drain excess fat if needed.
2. Add aromatics
   • Stir in onion and garlic, cook until softened (about 3–4 minutes).
3. Build the sauce
   • Add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
4. Cook the pasta in the sauce
   • Add uncooked pasta and beef broth directly into the pan.
   • Stir, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 12–15 minutes (until pasta is tender). Stir occasionally so it doesn’t stick.
5. Cheesy finish
   • Stir in 1 cup of shredded cheese until melted and creamy.
   • Sprinkle the rest on top, cover for a few minutes to let it melt.
6. Serve
   • Garnish with chopped pickles if you like that classic cheeseburger tang.
   • Serve hot!
