Directions |

Preheat
oven to 425°F (220°C). Brown ground beef in a large frying
pan. When no pink remains add kidney beans, corn, taco
seasoning mix and water. Simmer until no liquid remains,
about 10 minutes. Cook macaroni in large saucepan of boiling
salted water until tender but firm to bite, stirring
occasionally, about 6 minutes. Drain. Using the same pot,
bring milk to a simmer over medium-high heat. In a separate
medium bowl toss 2 ½ cups (725 ml) of the cheese
in flour until coated.
Add cheese
to milk. Whisk until
sauce is smooth, about 1 minute. Mix in macaroni and salsa;
season with pepper. Spread the beef mixture in a 11” x 17”
(28 x 43 cm) baking dish. Pour the macaroni on top,
smoothing it out evenly. Sprinkle with chips. Top with
remaining cheese. Bake until heated through, about 10
minutes. |
