My British friend and I created this recipe inspired by a dish she had eaten in an Italian restaurant. So easy and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • ½ cup pesto

  • ½ cup sour cream

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain.

  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Stir pesto and sour cream into ground beef until warmed; add macaroni and mix well.

Cook's Note:

I prefer red pesto (with roasted tomatoes.) Amounts can vary according to preference.
