Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 125 grams Cream cheese, softened, (4 oz)
  • 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 250 grams pasta, any bite size pasta will work, (8 oz)

Instructions
 

  • Brown the ground beef in a large skillet, then drain off the fat and add the beef to your slow cooker, then to the slow cooker add the water, stock, taco seasoning, garlic, onion, and tomatoes, stir then cover, cook on Low setting for 4-5 hours.
  • During the last 30 minutes of cooking, cook the pasta in a pot of salted boiling water until just tender and drain well. Stir the Cream cheese into the slow cooker until well blended. Then add the Cheddar cheese and pasta and mix that in, leave uncovered and cook on High setting for another 10-15 minutes to melt the Cheddar and heat everything through.

Notes

Figure about 100 Baht/500 grams of beef, 180 Baht for the Cheddar (1 block of 250 grams), and 60 Baht for the ½ block of Cream cheese. For 6 servings this is about $1.67 per serving.
