Homemade Beefaroni

Ok y’all this is WAY too easy! This is DELICIOUS homemade Beefaroni.

2 lb. Ground beef

2 tsp. Tomato paste

2-24 oz cans of pasta sauce

1- 16 oz. Box of Ziti

4 cups Beef Broth

1 cup Heavy Cream

Start off by cooking and draining 2 lbs of ground beef. Add seasonings to your liking. I used onion powder, garlic powder, pepper and Italian.

Next add 2 tsp. Of tomato paste and mix in and let cook for a couple minutes.

Then, add your pasta sauce, ziti and beef broth. Mix it all together and bring to a boil.

Cover and turn it down to a simmer. Let it cook for 12-15 min.

Next, add 1. Cup of heavy cream. Stir and allow to cook uncovered another 10 min.

Enjoy!

... Read moreMaking homemade Beefaroni is a comforting and straightforward way to enjoy a classic favorite with a personal touch. The combination of ground beef simmered with tomato paste and pasta sauce creates a rich, savory base that perfectly complements the tender ziti pasta. Adding beef broth not only enhances the depth of flavor but also helps cook the pasta directly in the sauce, making this an easy one-pot meal. In my experience, seasoning the ground beef with a blend of onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and Italian herbs like oregano and basil elevates the flavor profile and gives it a homemade taste that store-bought versions often lack. After browning the beef and mixing in the tomato paste, letting it cook for a few minutes allows the paste to caramelize slightly, boosting the umami notes. A key step is adding the heavy cream towards the end of cooking. This addition transforms the sauce into a luscious, creamy tomato mixture that feels indulgent without being heavy. Stirring the cream in after the initial simmer and cooking it uncovered for another 10 minutes helps to thicken the sauce and meld all the flavors beautifully. If you prefer a bit more texture, try mixing in some sautéed vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms when cooking the beef, or sprinkle shredded mozzarella or Parmesan cheese on top before serving for an extra cheesy finish. This recipe is versatile and forgiving, making it ideal for busy weeknights or meal prepping. Leftovers heat up well and taste even better the next day as the flavors continue to meld. Overall, the simplicity of cooking the pasta directly in the sauce broth mixture combined with hearty ground beef and creamy tomato sauce makes this Beefaroni recipe a delicious home-cooked meal that’s wholesome, satisfying, and perfect for family dinners.
