Notes

Use lean ground beef: Because this recipe has a creamy sauce, I use lean ground beef and don't usually have to drain any grease from the pan. If you use ground beef with a higher fat content, strain off the fat before adding more ingredients.
Pasta: Any type of pasta will work with this recipe, but do not use more than 6 ounces, or there will not be enough liquid to coat the noodles. My preference is wide egg noodles.
Mushrooms: This recipe does not call for mushrooms, but they would be a delicious addition. You should add no more than ½ cup of fresh mushrooms. White mushrooms are a great option.
