Cheeseburger Macaroni!

This is a very easy weeknight meal since it's all items that most people already have in their pantry or fridge. I love cheeseburgers and I love macaroni. Seconds please.

Cheeseburger Macaroni (serving size: 4-6)
1lb ground beef
1/2 diced onion
1 box macaroni
2 can of beef broth (8oz each)
1 can of tomato sauce (8oz)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (more or less depending on taste)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Salt & Pepper

1) In a large pot with salted water, cook macaroni until al dente. Drain and toss with 1 tbsp butter to prevent sticking. Reserve for later.
2) Heat olive oil in pan and cook onions until translucent. Add ground beef until browned and almost cooked.
3) Add beef broth, tomato sauce and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes.
4) Turn off the heat and add shredded cheddar cheese. Mix to melt and combine.
5) Stir in cooked macaroni. Enjoy!
