Cheesy Sloppy Cheeseburger Pasta

1. **Cook the Beef**: In a large skillet or pot, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. Drain excess fat if necessary.
2. **Sauté the Onion and Garlic**: Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the onion is softened.
3. **Add the Sauce Ingredients**: Stir in the tomato sauce, beef broth, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
4. **Add the Pasta**: Add the uncooked pasta to the skillet, stirring to coat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the pasta is tender, stirring occasionally.
5. **Add the Cheese**: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese until melted and creamy. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese on top, cover for a few minutes to melt.
6. **Serve**: Garnish with fresh parsley or chopped green onions, and serve warm.
💡 **Tips**
– For extra cheesiness, add a bit of cream cheese or extra sharp cheddar.
– Try adding cooked bacon bits for a “bacon cheeseburger” twist.
– Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat on the stove with a splash of broth or milk to bring back the creamy texture.
