Ingredients: 1 pound ground beef; 1 small onion, diced; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 teaspoon salt; 1/2 teaspoon black pepper; 1 teaspoon paprika; 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano; 1/2 cup ketchup; 2 tablespoons mustard; 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese; 1 cup diced tomatoes; 1 cup diced pickles; 4 cups cooked macaroni; 1/4 cup breadcrumbs

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the onion is softened.
Season the beef mixture with salt, pepper, paprika, and dried oregano. Stir to combine the spices evenly.
Stir in the ketchup and mustard, ensuring all the ingredients are well coated in the sauce.
Spread the cooked macaroni evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Layer the beef mixture over the macaroni, spreading it out evenly to cover the pasta.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef layer.
Top the casserole with diced tomatoes and pickles for an extra burst of flavor and freshness.
Sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the top to add a crunchy texture.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
