This looks so delicious. I've always made a variation of this recipe on the stove top but I never considered making it in the crock pot. Thanks for the tip.

This one looks so yummy and tempting. Of course I would substitute ground beef with ground turkey or lamb. I am saving this recipe.

I tried to make Chili Mac a few weeks ago and everyone (including the dogs) asked me not to make that version again, lol. I will try this one. I used to have a great recipe for it but lost it.

Good old macaroni and beef casserole. That's the ultimate in comfort food I think, I remember dishes like this when I was a kid!

That looks good, I'll definitely have to try it. Do you think a jar of pasta sauce would work as well as tomato sauce?
